Fresh applesauce always on hand? Yes please! All you need is water, sugar, a giant pot, and a barrel of apples :) This is even more delightfully delicious than the little Mott's cups.
1 cinnamon stick (or you can sprinkle some ground cinnamon in)
1/2 c sugar
1 c water
1/2 tsp salt
You can also add lemon juice for more zing.
*Make sure to use good cooking apples. We like Granny Smith, Fuji or Mcintosh the best. :)
Put all the ingredients into a large pot and bring to a boil.
Keeping the lid on, lower the heat and let it simmer until apples start to disintegrate and get extra mushy (about 15-30 minutes depending on the size of chunks you put into the pot).
Remove the cinnamon stick, and blend with an immersion blender. You could also use a regular blender or food processor. (If you like your applesauce chunky, skip this step).
You can serve it warm or let it cool in the refrigerator and then top with cinnamon. This applesauce can also be made in bulk and frozen for up to a year so you can always have an easy fruit side.
