Apples and Sunshine

Well finally after some really cold morning and a good amount of frost we are feeling a little Indian Summer. So I have set up my crock pots and have applesauce cooking. We love apples and all the fun things you can do with them. Well this year I have bought way to many apples as usual so I am knee deep in the things.

So I have learned to make homemade applesauce. Well it was so easy that I just have to encourage everyone to make it.  Here are the questions that you need to ask yourself prior to making homemade applesauce.

Can you cut up an apple? Do you own a crock pot? Do you have cinnamon and sugar available?

If you answered yes to these questions then you can make applesauce too.




Homemade Apple Sauce the Easy Way

8 large apples-cored, peeling is optional
3 tablespoons cinnamon
3 tablespoons sugar or sugar substitute

Cut up your apples, making sure to get the cores and seeds out. You can peel your apples if you want to but it isn't necessary. Once your all done cutting the apples up, place the apples and cinnamon, sugar all in a crock pot. Turn on low for 6-8 hours. You can stir and mash as you go or wait til it is all done. It is simply personal preference.

So that is it. So simply that even your kiddos can do it. Mine did.
