Applesauce


Jess

I've always made applesauce with just a bit of sugar and a bit of cinnamon, but I really like this way our friend Jess makes it, too-- more of a spiced variety.

apples
2 t cinnamon
1/2 t cloves
1/4 t nutmeg
1/2 T lemon juice
1/3 - 1/2 C sugar (we used even a little more than that)

Fill a large pot with unpeeled, cored apples, quartered. Add an inch of so of water. Simmer for a while until apples are soft and falling apart. Process through a food mill. Stir in spices, lemon juice, and sugar.
