Ingredients

Servings

Instructions

  1. Wash, peel, and core the apples. Cut them into quarters or eighths.
  2. Place prepared apples and remaining ingredients in a slow cooker.
  3. Cook on low heat for 6 hours. Stir once or twice during cooking time.
  4. Remove the lemon peel if desired (I leave it in). Stir well. An immersion blender may be used if a smoother texture is desired.

Notes

  • One medium apple yields about 1/2 cup applesauce. For reference, I use a 3-quarter slow cooker for this size batch of applesauce.
  • Choose a mix of two or three different apple varieties for best flavor. 
  • For plain, un-spiced applesauce, simply omit everything but the apples.
