Grandma's Applesauce Pie image

This is one of the recipes I remember most from my childhood. My grandmother always had this on hand for her grandkids who came to visit. It was invented especially for us kids because it had no "chunks" of apple in it. There was no surprise that the adults loved this pie, just as much as we did.
