Our homemade applesauce recipe is so simple and so good, you'll never want to buy the stuff from the store again.
Ingredients:
4 pounds (about 8 to 10 apples, depending on the size) apples, peeled, cored, and quartered (Use apples varieties that are good for cooking, such as Granny Smith, Pippin, Gravenstein, Mcintosh, Fuji, Jonathan, Jonagold, or Golden Delicious.)
2 strips lemon peel (use a vegetable peeler to strip the zest only, not the pith)
3 tablespoons lemon juice or apple cider vinegar (more or less to taste)
