So easy! This really is fool-proof. It tastes amazing with a generous sprinkling of cinnamon.

The 1st lot I made I added some cinnamon & the 2nd lot I added fresh strawberry's. It was a huge hit with the kids. I got 4 8oz jam jars & then I gave them a boiling water bath to seal them, so I could put them into my food storage. I drained some of the water before I put it into the blender, I also added the 1/4 cup sugar & lemon juice while I was cooking the apples so I didn't recook them.

Not bad. I had to blend the apples in a food processor after cooking to get correct consistency. I did use a little cinnamon and will probably for go that next time, even a small sprinkle turned the apple sauce a brown color and gave it a bit of an over whelming cinnamon flavor. My son loved it but my husband said it was too sweet, almost like a dessert.

Delicious... And I'm not even a fan of applesauce... I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to it as well... And I took the advice of another reviewer and just used one cup water and 1/2 cup sugar.. And mashed the apples with a potato masher

I omit the sugar to make unsweetened applesauce- I use it for my baking =)

I've made this many time during the fall when I didn't know what to do with all the apples from our apple tree! I add only about 1 cup of water and 1/2 cup of sugar for the best applesauce ever.

Really good and easy to make! I've made this with and without sugar, using white and brown sugar and a combo of both. Any way I've made it has been good. You can also throw a bit of cinnamon in there for a bit of a change!

I did everything the same except that I didn't peel the apples since I like the pinkish color for homemade applesauce. :) It was pretty good, but it wasn't gobbled up right away. Easy to make!

Delicious! I did forget to cook it after running it through the processor. Also, I added sugar to taste and added some cinnamon. It was so good! We ate it plain and with latkes and pork chops.

I loved this recipe, It was so easy, the only thing I did differently was put the apples in a bowl of water with the lemon juice so they didn't brown as I was peeling and coring the rest. Will make again.

My modifications: used Granny Smith's, no sugar, no water, no lemon juice. Just popped the cooked apples into the blender and pureed. This "naked" applesauce came out just fine - the lemon juice can be added at serving time if desired.

After reading all the comments about the water, when I made this, last night, I drained the apples and put the cooked chunks in the food processor. I suspect the draining part was left out of the recipe's instructions. I added the juice of half a lemon to the cooking water, and the juice of the other half to the pulp in the processor. I used no sugar and old Granny Smiths. It was wonderful, just like that. Then I tried adding a 1/2 tsp of cinnamon to a 1 cup serving, which was also wonderful. So, just drain the cooked apples and forget about the water quantity--just use enough to cover the apples, for simmering.

I don't like applesause that much but I made it and it is actually preaty good !!! (I didn't add as much water)

When making this be sure to follow the other reviewers addvice and watch the amount of water that you choose to add. I didn't add any sugar despite the fact that I used Granny Smith apples as I like my applesauce very tart. A great recipe - I won't go back to store bought.

Turned out great! As other viewers said though - cut down the amount of water! I added less water but still had too much. I also added cinnamon and nutmeg and used honey instead of sugar. Great and easy recipe!

Basic recipe is good, however, this called for way too much water. I had juicey Melrose apples and only need a quarter of a cup of water. I also cut back on the sugar and added a goodly amount of cinnamon. Because my apples were so tender, I didn't need to run them thru the food processor. A simple mashing with a potato masher did the trick just fine. Great thing to do with all of those apples after a day of apple and pumpkin picking! Thanks Rachel!
