Applesauce
"Good applesauce is not hard nor does it require a lot of ingredients. I found this recipe in my old Betty Crocker cookbook. Strangely, I could not find this recipe anywhere on 'Zaar in the same proportions. This recipe is perfect everytime."

ingredients
directions
- Peel and dice apples.
- Add apples to crockpot or sauce pan.
- Add water.
- Cook in the crockpot on low for approximately 6 hours. Stir occassionally to mush the apples. At the end of the cooking, they will all of a sudden be real mushy.
- You can make this on the stove too. You will have to cook on low and stir more frequently to avoid burning. The apples will probably cook faster on the stove.
- If you use granny smith apples, you may want to add sugar, but otherwise, most apples have enough sugar in them to make your applesauce plenty sweet.

Hi there, This was so easy to make using my crock pot. I used golden delicious apples and nothing else apart from the water and it tasted just great. I thought that I would use this for a whole lot of other recipes. I have bran muffins just waiting to be made and this sauce is just the ticket. thank you for posting. Made for cooking with apples tag game in October in the Spain and Portugal forum.

<p>I am an estate planning and asset protection attorney. I have one daughter, Jacqueline, who was born 6/26/2007. </p>
<p>Since I cannot afford to eat at upscale restaurants every night of the week, I cook to meet my high standards for variety, quality, and creativity in my meals. Recipezaar has made it so incredibly easy to meet these goals!!! <br /><br />I am totally obsessed with cooking, and I couldn't stop if I wanted to. It is as natural to me as breathing. I can remember looking through my mother's cookbooks as soon as I could read. While I mostly prefer modern recipes, I do have some old time favorites. I use the same Betty Crocker cookbook my mother uses. It is the 2nd Edition Betty Crocker cookbook reprinted in 1956. I found it at a used book store. I also use a Pillbury cookbook, a Fanny Farmer cookbook, The New Basics Cookbook and Great Good Food (both by Julee Ross). I also find good recipes in Cooking Light and Southern Living magazines. <br /><br />While I have discovered and love Paula Deen, my cooking is taking a new direction. I am trying to eat more monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), less saturated fats, more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fiber, and more omega 3s, i.e., basically the Mediterranean diet. I am doing it not only to maintain a healthy weight, but also for my long term health. I am not saying goodbye to all the luscious things I used to eat, I am just changing how much of those I eat. <br /><br />I am probably somewhat demanding in my reviews. If the recipe is not a WOW meal, I probably won't give it a 5 star rating. With so many recipes on 'Zaar, there is no reason to settle for less than 5 stars every night of the week! <br /><br />I have recenlty become interested in foodie fiction, since I am a foodie! Someday I will write a book that involves cooking. I am not sure if I should write a fiction book or non fiction, but I know that I love to read anything that involves cooking. <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
