Fruit Puree Fat Replacement

5 ingredients
2 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 pears, medium, ripe but firm, well washed
  • 2 whole apples, well washed
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lecithin granules

Directions

  1. 1
    Cut fruit into eighths (do not core); place in a heavy medium saucepan. Add water, lemon juice and lecithin and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer, stirring and mashing fruit occasionally, until mushy, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  2. 2
    Press through a fine sieve (or food mill fitted with a fine grate) into a bowl. (It will have an applesauce-like texture.) Let cool completely. (The fruit puree will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.).
