Applesauce

So lately my kids have been goign thru jar of applesauce and it starting to get to expensive. So instead I decided to make homemade applesauce from apples. It was very simple and I was able to make it in my crockpot. I did make it two ways. The first batch was not so good becasue my kids don't like cinnamon. I also halved the recipe becasue I wanted to make sure they liekd it first.

Here is the recipe for the cinnamon version with splenda
4 apples, peeled and quartered
1/2 water
1/4 cup splenda
1 tsp cinnamon

Combine all ingredients in a small slow cooker and Cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6

The second recipe came out much better
4 apples, peeled and quartered
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup sugar

Combine all ingredients in a small slow cooker. Cook on High for 3 hour or on low for 6.

To make bigger batch of applesauce double the amount.

I will be going to the store later in the week to make a bigger batch for friends.
