Homemade Applesauce

Submitted by: MEGTHEKIWI
Homemade Applesauce

Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    5 apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
    4 tbsp brown sugar
    3 tsp cinnamon

Directions

*Place the apple pieces in a large pot and cook on medium heat.
*Add a little water to the pot if it looks dry.
*Once all the apples are soft (about 20-30 mins) mash the apples.
*Add the brown sugar and cinnamon and stir.

Notes: I like to put this apple sauce on top of pancakes instead of syrup.
For a tasty desert: warm up the apple sauce and put ice cream on top or graham cracker crumbs :)

    I make this in my crockpot all the time. If the apples are sweet enough, we skip the brown sugar. - 3/3/09

    I made the applesauce out of necessity since i didnt want to open a lg jar of sauce for the small amount i needed for the recipe i was making. It was well worth making the sauce. Im covinced its better than store bought and will continue to make it. its a 5 star recipe - 11/19/11

    then why'd you give it only 1 star! ;) I'm sure that was just a mistake.

    i made this and left it chunky. I put whole blueberries, dried mixed fruit and blueberries as well as adding nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, ginger and cloves. The house smelled like a pumpkin pie was baking. I also added 3 T of brown sugar blend to it as well. - 2/13/11

    I'm making this right now and I added all the ingredients with about 1 tsp of Vanilla extract, yummy. I didn't add the brown sugar as I don't think I'm going to need it. I only used 3 apples, I used about 21/2 apples and cooked them, will add the rest of the small chunck for yogurts. - 2/9/11

    Very good and super easy! I would suggest tasting your cooked apples before adding any sugar. Ours was already nice and sweet. Just added cinnamon! - 10/21/10

    This was absolutely delicious. Instead of using brown sugar, I used Redpath Half - a sugar substitute with only 1/2 the calories of sugar. My whole family loved it. - 10/2/10

    Can you please tell me how big a serving is, according to your nutrition facts? Thanks! - 4/3/09

    Reply from MEGTHEKIWI (11/29/11)
    It depends on the size of the apples and how long you let it cook/how small you mash up the pieces, but a serving is roughly 1/4 cup.
