Ingredients
  

  • 4 apples peeled, cored, and chopped
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup sugar white or brown
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon ground
  • A few drops lemon juice optional

Instructions
 

  • Using a medium sized saucepan on medium heat, combine apples, water, sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Cover, and cook over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until apples are soft.
  • Turn off the stove and allow mixture to cool for a few minutes.
  • Mash the mixture with a fork or potato masher to make apple sauce.
  • Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Notes

Great apples to use are Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, Fuji, Jonathan, Mcintosh, or Gravenstein. The apples vary in sweetness throughout the year, so taste a piece before adding sugar. If the apple is too sweet, add less sugar. Apple sauce is usually served with pork chops, potato latkes, on its own as a side dish.
