5 medium-sized Gala apples, peeled, cored, quartered, and sliced
5 medium-sized Golden Yellow Delicious apples, peeled, cored, quartered, and sliced
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup water or apple juice
Place all of the apple pieces in a large bowl and stir in sugar and ground cinnamon. Pour water or apple juice into the bottom of a large crockpot (slow cooker) and add the apple mixture. Cover, turn the crockpot setting to Low, and cook for about 8 hours (or on High for 5 hours), stirring occasionally.
Serve warm or room temperature.
My changes: (I mixed the sugar, cinnamon and apple juice in the bottom of the crockpot and added the apples as I was cutting them, so I didn’t have to dirty an extra bowl. I used an immersion blender in the crockpot to blend half of it and left half of it chunky.)
Makes approximately 4 cups of applesauce.

Heather - So glad you enjoy the applesauce as much as we do. I'd love to see you post one of your pictures of the applesauce next time you make it. I just wanted to point out that this recipe original came from Dara, Cookin' Canuck http://www.cookincanuck.com/2009/10/family-crockpot-applesauce-recipe/. It's one of their treasured family recipes. Thanks!
This looks so good. Hope you'll pop over to my link party this week and link up a few recipes!
