Many of you probably already know apfelmus, the classic German apple mousse: I love it a lot with kaiserschmarren but it’s ok on bread, with biscuits, alone ( I call it spoon mode).
If you go North here in Italy you can find apfelmus in stores but here where I am is not so easy to find ( but not impossible as Lidl, which is a German flag, is almost everywhere).
I decided to give a try with homemade apple sauce because…
Because well, homemade is alway better ( if it turns out well of course).
I also made this recipe for a partnership with an Italian association which promote fruit and vegetable consume.
We eat a lot of vegetables every day and I found this idea of a recipe collection about how to eat more fruit/ vegetables very remarkable and I decided to join.
