Homemade Applesauce
Why I Love This Recipe
Ree Drummond made it
Ingredients You'll Need
6 lb. apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 8 slices
1 c. apple juice or apple cider
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 c. brown sugar, packed
1 tsp. cinnamon, more or less to taste
Optional ingredients: Nutmeg, maple syrup, allspice, butter, to taste
Directions
Combine all ingredients in a large pot and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 25 minutes.
Carefully puree in a food processor or blender (don't fill too full; split into two portions if needed) until smooth. Store in the fridge and serve by itself, over pork chops, over ice cream, over pancakes...or any place where applesauce is needed!
