My husband doesn't like BBQ sauce, but we had a pork roast.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. Different apples will give your applesauce different flavors and textures. For a classic applesauce, use a mix of tart and sweet apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Fuji. If you want a sweeter applesauce, use more sweet apples, such as Gala or Red Delicious.
  • Peel and core your apples. This is the most time-consuming part of making applesauce, but it's worth it to get a smooth, consistent sauce. You can use a vegetable peeler or a paring knife to peel your apples, and a melon baller or an apple corer to remove the cores.
  • Use a slow cooker. A slow cooker is a great way to make applesauce because it cooks the apples low and slow, which helps to preserve their flavor and nutrients. Simply add your apples, spices, and water to the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours.
  • Add some spices. Spices can help to enhance the flavor of your applesauce. Some popular spices to add include cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and ginger. You can also add a bit of sugar or honey to sweeten your applesauce, if desired.
  • Serve warm or cold. Applesauce is delicious served warm or cold. You can enjoy it on its own, or use it as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or oatmeal. You can also add it to baked goods, such as muffins, cakes, and pies.

Conclusion:

Making applesauce in a slow cooker is a great way to enjoy this delicious and versatile fruit. With just a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a delicious homemade applesauce that is perfect for enjoying on its own or using in a variety of recipes. So next time you have a lot of apples on hand, give this slow cooker applesauce recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
