Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 pounds Apples (- see post for details, peeled and quartered. See recommended varieties above.)
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 tsp Lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp Splenda
  • 1 tsp Ground cinnamon

Instruction

  • In a large saucepan over medium to high heat, combine the apples, water, and lemon juice . Bring the mixture to a boil and then set the heat to low and cover with a lid to simmer. It should take about 10-15 minutes for your apples to become soft.
  • Once your apples are soft you can remove the applesauce from the heat. Stir in the remaining ingredients adding additional as needed. Tip: If your apple sauce is too chunky for your tastes, you can puree it through a food processor or strong blender (may have to do batches). Another option is to use a potato masher to mash it down.
  • Store your applesauce in a closed container, such as a canning jar , for up to a week in the refrigerator.
