Applesauce... there are lots of good crockpot ones, which are super easy.
I totally agree... :thumbup: Here is an easy, good one..
This makes enough for 4 people. If you would like to freeze or can, use more apples.
--4 large apples, skinned ,cored, and cut in quarters
--juice from 1 lemon
--1/2 tsp cinnamon
--1 tsp vanilla
--1 T brown sugar
--1/4 cup H20
The Directions:
Skin, core, and cut your apples into quarters. Plop the pieces into your crockpot. Add the juice from the lemon, and the water. Pour in the vanilla (I used imitation--we were out of the good stuff), and add the cinnamon and brown sugar.
Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours. When the apples are super tender, mash with a potato masher or large fork.
*-I add a bunch of cinnamon red hots to the crock pot or pan, about halfway through, it gives a super cute color and a yummy cinnamon-y flavor..
**-I also leave ours a little chunky, but it mashes up SUPER fine easily, if you like a smoother texture..
