Ingredients:

2 persimmons, peeled and cubed
6 apples, peeled and cubed (I used granny smith)

Combine all ingredients in a medium pot and bring to a boil.

Cover and reduce heat to medium low. Simmer for 25-30 minutes.

Mash apple sauce with a potato masher until it’s your desired consistency.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks.
