Recipe - Fruit Puree Fat Replacement

2 Ripe but firm medium pears;
well washed
2 md Apples; well washed
Three fourths cup Water
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
1 tablespoon Lecithin granules

Cut fruit into eighths (do not core); place in a heavy medium saucepan. Add

cover and simmer, stirring and mashing fruit occasionally, until mushy, 35

fruit puree will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in
