Easy Applesauce
Ingredients:
- 5-8 lbs of apples
- Sugar, to taste
- Cinnamon, optional
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
- Wash then cut apples into evenly-sized chunks. No need to peel or core.
- Place apples in a slow cooker. Cook on high for 1 hour, then low for 8-10 hours.
- Once apples are soft and falling apart, allow them to cool.
- Push apples through a mesh strainer or sieve placed over a bowl.
- Add salt, sugar and cinnamon to taste. A squeeze of lemon juice can add some brightness to the sauce.
- Store in refrigerator and use within 2 weeks.
*This is a great way to use 'seconds' or an abundance of apples!
