    Awesome Applesauce


    Applesauce is easy for kids to make--plus
    it's familiar and yummy!

    List of Ingredients




    3 pounds apples, quartered and cored
    1 cup water
    1/2 cup sugar, or to taste
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

    Recipe



    Put the apples in a large, heavy saucepan. Add the water and cook over medium-low heat for 20 to 30 minutes. Stir the apples occasionally until softened.

    Add the sugar. If the apples are very sweet, add less sugar. If tart, add a little more. Add the lemon juice and cinnamon. Stir and cook for about 1 minute longer. The applesauce will still be a chunky.

    Remove the pan from the heat and let the sauce cool until lukewarm. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

    Strain the applesauce through a medium sieve or mash it with a potato masher. Serve warm or cool completely.

    Store applesauce in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days. Freeze for up to 2 months.

    Serves 6 to 8 (makes about 4 cups)
