"I had a bag of apples in the fridge that needed to be used up, so I thought it would be nice to make some applesauce! It requires only a few ingredients and is very easy to make. You can adjust the amount of sweetener to suit your taste or just exclude it completely."

ingredients
- 7 cups peeled and cubed Apples
- 3/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1/3 cup granulated Sugar
Method
Step 1
Place your peeled & cubed apples and water in a large pot. Cook on high, stirring and mashing consistently until the mixture is mostly smooth with only small grainy lumps throughout. You may need to add a bit more water as the apples continue to cook down so that the mixture doesn’t become too thick.
Step 2
Stir in the cinnamon and sugar/sweetener (if desired) and continue to cook it for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 3
If you’d like a smoother apple sauce, you can use an immersion blender or food processor to refine the mixture afterwards.
Step 4
Allow your applesauce to cool a bit before serving and/or storing in an air-tight container in the fridge.
