Introduction
This recipe is from Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook.If you have an apple peeler the prep time will be significantly reduced. It took me about an hour to manually peel and core (using an apple slicer) 10 medium sized apples.
This applesauce has just a hint of orange flavor to satisfy a sweet craving.
Sugar can be added as the last step if preferred, not included in the nutrition information (it was sweet enough as is). This recipe is from Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook.
