Ingredients
Ingredients
- 4 pounds apples, such as McIntosh, Gala, and Braeburn
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
- 3 tablespoons dark-brown sugar (optional)
Directions
Peel, core, and slice apples.
In a large pot, bring apples, lemon juice, and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil over high. Reduce heat and simmer until apples are very soft and falling apart, 25 to 30 minutes.
Mash with a potato masher or pulse in a food processor until smooth with small chunks remaining. (Add sugar, if using.)
Let cool, then transfer applesauce to airtight containers.

Loved this recipe! So simple and delicious! I didn't need to add any sugar, sprinkled in Ceylon cinnamon and discovered I never want to eat store bought applesauce again.

Excellent! I also will never buy applesauce again. Sugar is not necessary and I add cinnamon and sometimes ground ginger. A little lemon brightens the flavor, but can also be left out. Simply boiled apples pureed down to sauce, a very healthy and delicious treat!

I made this in the crockpot and it turned out amazing! I will never buy applesauce again! The only change I made was in reducing the water to 1cup since I knew it wouldn't be reduced in the crockpot like on the stove. The consistency was perfect. I did add the brown sugar as suggested and it was just the right amount of sweetness. I can't wait to try the variations!

This recipe is part of the Everyday Food Light issue I received 2 weeks ago and I made the cranberry-orange applesauce. It is absolutely delicious !
