Eazie-Peazie Applesauce

My mom friends look at me with Martha Stewart admiration whenever I have homemade applesauce for the little guys. Of course, I soak it all in. But for you, I will reveal my secret.

Step 1 : Peel apples and put into saucepan.
Step 2: Cook apples over medium heat.
Step 3: While apples cook, add a half tablespoon sugar, a teaspoon of cinnamon, and a half teaspoon of nutmeg.

Voila! That’s it. Your applesauce will be ready in 20 minutes or so. (Maccouns and McIntosh break down easily, but Gala are good, too.)

So easy. Just don’t tell my friends!

    Does sound easy. I wonder if the Big Apple is still open. If not I guess we’ll go store bought :(

    Katie, the Big Apple is definitely still open, and so is Cook’s Valley Farm.

    I will have to pick up some more organic apples! This recipe sounds like something I would actually be able to make with my limited cooking skills! :)
