Truly the easiest recipe to make in the Fall is Applesauce! This is my “go to” for demonstrations, dinners, festive treats! The ingredients are: Apples, Sweetener & Spices. Easy Peezy!

Peel and Core Any Apple Varieties Any amount you would like. Put the apples into a cooking pot. Add a bit of water or cider to help start the cooking. Let apples cook until soft & can be mashed up with a hand masher. While cooking add your favorite sweetener. It could be raw sugar, brown sugar, honey….whatever is your preference! I don’t measure, I put in some sweetener then taste to our liking. Add spices. This can be cinnamon, cloves, allspice, etc. Continue mixing and keep cooking until all sweetener & spices are mixed well.

That is it! While hot you can bottle for canning. You can place in plastic freezer bags or eat nice & hot over ice cream! There are many options! It is like an apple pie without the crust!

For apple butter do everything the same except once cooked pour it all into a baking pan and bake until thickened & smooth.
