Peel, core, and cut the apples into quarters. Add them to the Instant Pot.

Add in the water, cinnamon, and brown sugar and stir to combine.

Put the lid on the Instant Pot and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.

Once the time is up you can do a natural release of the pressure or a manual release. I chose to manually release.

Mash the apples in the Instant Pot and mix with the liquid to make a chunky applesauce.

Serve hot.
