Ingredients
3poundsHoneycrisp applespeeled, cored and cut into thick slices (about 12 medium apples)
Combine all ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on high for 5 hours.
If you prefer a slightly chunky applesauce as pictured simply stir and mash the apples with a large spoon.
If you prefer smooth applesauce, transfer the cooled applesauce to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
Store applesauce in an airtight container within the refrigerator or freeze for up to 6 months.
Notes
The amount of sugar you use will depend on the type of apples you use. I recommend tasting the applesauce about an hour before it's done and adjusting the spices and sugar to meet your taste. My apples were quite sweet, so 1/3 cup was perfect.
I am not a canner, so I have not attempted to can this recipe. Plus, it was gone in 2 days!
