- 8 c. water to 10 c.
- 10 x apples cored,peeled * and cut in quarters
- 1/4 c. water
- 1 Tbsp. brown sugar to 2 tbsp cinnamon to taste
Directions
- I make applesauce weekly in the Fall. It's so easy and tastes so much better than the bottled stuff. Here's the "recipe".
- 1 medium lemon, squeezed into a potful of water (8-0 c.) 10 apples, cored, peeled and cut into quarters -
- * (mix of Macintosh and Yellow Delicious works well - the Macs cook faster, so you get a lumpy mix)
- dipped into the lemon-water, and then liquid removed 1/4 c. water
- Place the apples and water in a microwave save container, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for 15 min. Stir and mash on the apples to break them up a bit.
- Microwave for 5-10 min longer till the applesauce is the consistency you like. Sprinkle on 1 to 2 Tbsp. brown sugar, and a sprinkling of cinnamon- both sugar and cinnamon are to taste. Stir, cold and chill.
