Note

Serve this sauce immediately while warm for the best texture. It will firm up slightly as it cools.

For a thinner consistency, add a splash of milk or cream. For a thicker sauce, reduce the amount of apple sauce.

This sauce pairs exceptionally well with toasted crumpets, pancakes, or fresh berries.

Do not boil the mixture, as high heat can cause the dairy to curdle. Keep the heat on low.
