I never realized how easy it was to make applesauce until I had way more apples than I needed. Then I checked out Recipezaar and found the following recipe. Delish and takes no time at all!
Ingredients
4 apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon or nutmeg
Directions
1. Put the apples and water in a saucepan.
2. Cover and bring to the boil.
3. Boil over low heat, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes.
4. Stir in sugar and cook until it dissolves.
5. Add cinnamon or nutmeg.
6. Serve warm or cold.
***Side notes***
I have made this without the sugar, with only half the amount required, as well as as the recipe calls for. I think you can sweeten it to taste almost. And if you’re using a sweet enough apple (I’ve used Jonathan & Gala apples), then you probably won’t need sugar at all. And it tastes just as yummy hot as it does cold… Oh heck, it tastes just as awesome no matter how I made it!
