Servings:

Prep. Time:

:25

Total Time:

1:25

Ingredients:

9 Macintosh apples
1-1/2 cups cranberry juice cocktail
2 tbsp. sugar
1/2 lemon, juice of
1/4 tsp. nutmeg

Directions:

Peel the apples, reserving the peels of 6 of them. Quarter and core the apples. Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil then reduce heat. Simmer mixture until apples are soft and you can mash them down into applesauce, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from heat and cool.

Remove peels from the applesauce and discard them. Mash applesauce a bit more if you wish (I like mine a bit chunky), then refrigerate until ready to serve.

If you like, you can make extra applesauce and spoon into sterilized pint jars, seal and process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes.

Comments from lebowskifan :

This homemade applesauce has a delicious, clear apple taste accented with a little nutmeg, a nip of lemon, and bit of cranberry juice.
