FREEZER APPLESAUCE

Makes 3 ½ - 4 cups (1 quart)

Doubles & Triples very good.

8 cups of washed, peeled & chopped & cored apples

2/3 c. water

2 TBL lemon juice or Fresh Fruit

CROCK POT INSTRUCTIONS

Fill 6 quart crock pot to the top with peeled, sliced and cored apples

Add 2/3 cup water, mixed with 2 TBL of lemon juice

Cook on low 4-5 hours, stirring about every 90 minutes. Once apples are falling apart, use stick blender to puree. Can add Brown sugar or cinnamon if desired.

STOVE TOP INSTRUCTIONS

Put everything into large pot. Cook on medium heat until soft enough to puree, about could be anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours depending how soft your apples were to start. Puree up with stick blender, traditional blender or food processer.

Place in freezer containers. Let cool before placing in freezer, or you can just eat it right away. Oh, and no need for sugar, but if you like really sweet applesauce add 1/4 cup of brown sugar after you get it all mashed and pureed up. Can add ½-1 tsp. cinnamon also.
