My crock pot has been gathering dust in the back of a cabinet all spring and summer long. Finally, a recipe that will put it to good use! Thanks, Maria!

Even faster than this recipe.

Fill up a metal, non-reactive pot with apple chunks. (I cut/core them and then chop the slices.)

Add enough water to the pot so that the apples don’t stick (about 1/4 cup, max).

Put the lid on and cook over medium heat for about 20 min, until somewhat tender.

Using a blender or stick blender, blend the apples until they are as chunky or smooth as you want.

If desired, add cinnamon. (I add about 1 TBSP for about 6 qts apples).

If desired, add sugar. (I never do.)

Freeze or can as desired.

To can, add to hot jars and process in a water bath for 10 minutes.

Applesauce on toast is not strange at all – I canned both applesauce & apple butter this fall. The main difference is that the butter cooks in apple cider or juice, whereas the sauce cooks in water. Additionally, the butter is allowed to reduce for a longer period of time. Thus the butter may just be a bit thicker and sweeter than sauce.

[...] Crockpot (Slow Cooker) Chunky Cinnamon Applesauce: I love this recipe because it is effortless! You make the applesauce in the crockpot (slow cooker) and there is no canning involved. The hardest part is chopping the apples, which I didn’t mind doing. I like chopping, it’s a great stress reliever:) I used a mixture of our CA apples-Gala, Honey Crisp, and Granny Smith. I also added in lots of cinnamon. The house smelled amazing while the applesauce was simmering. Found at Two Peas And Their Pod. [...]

I made this last night. It smelled good while I was making it, and smelled good again, as it cooked. You are right. The applesauce does taste good on whole-wheat toast!
