Ingredients

Scale

56 lbs Apples {I used a combination of Cameo, Braeburn, Fuji, Jonagold, Gala, Jonathan and  Mcintosh apples}
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup of water


Instructions

Wash and quarter apples.  Place apples in a 5 quart dutch oven, cover with 1 cup of water. Place lid on the pot and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

When the apples are soft, remove from heat and process through a food mill. Discard pulp.

Add cinnamon and sugar to warm applesauce {if desired} and stir.

Enjoy!


Notes

Fresh applesauce will keep in the refrigerator for about 5 days.  If you don’t think you’ll go through it that fast, you can always freeze it.
