Slow-Cooking Applesauce

This tastes very similar to apple pie filling because of the cinnamon. So yeah, yum. I tripled the original recipe in order to have enough for my applesauce-loving kiddos. And I left out the brown sugar because when I made it before it tasted just a little too sweet. Using sweeter apples makes it so that you don't really need the added sugar.

Slow-Cooking Applesauce
A variation on this recipe from crockpot365.blogspot.com


4 large apples, skinned, cored, and cut in quarters
Juice from 1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup water


Place the apple pieces in your crockpot. Add the juice from the lemon and the water. Pour in the vanilla, add the cinnamon, and toss to combine.

Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours. When the apples are super tender, mash with a potato masher or large fork.
