Applesauce
Ingredients:
4 apples, cored and peeled
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, if you want, sugar to taste.
Peel apples and cut into pieces. Place into pot with water and bring to boil.
Turn heat down, cover and allow to simmer approx. 15 minutes.
You can add cinnamon, sugar, cloves, or any spice you like. You can also spice it up with dried cherries or dried cranberries.
If you like it chunky, just cook less.
If using a pressure cooker, bring up to steam and allow to cool naturally.
