Slow Cooking Thursday ~ Chunky Applesauce

This past week, Emahry & I made chunky applesauce in the crock pot. It's so easy, healthy, & delicious. We didn't even feel the need to add sugar, the apples were sweet enough on their own.

Start with a bunch of apples, cut and slice into thin chunks. For chunky applesauce, there's no need to peel the apples (that's the part I love).



Spray your crock pot with non-stick spray and fill with apple chunks. Cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-6 hours. Stir occasionally if you're home.


Now you have beautifully chunky applesauce (& a delicious smelling kitchen). Give a good stir before serving. We think this applesauce is best served warm or piping hot right from the crock pot.

Enjoy!

Here's a bonus: Emahry in her apron.

  3. This is so funny! I had planned to share a similar recipe. In fact, I started making it yesterday on the stovetop. I checked on it and then went to nurse the baby. The bottom of the apples burned before I could get back to them!!! Oh well.

  6. I make a similiar recipe every September in my class with my students. This year was my favorite. I used Gala apples (I didn't peel mine either) and chunked them. I usually use Granny Smith and while the applesauce is good, it's not near as good with sweet apples. I let the students each put a packet of Equal in the crockpot and shake some cinamon in. The smells enticed us all day. We ate it at the end of the day! Delicious!

  7. This looks so much better than the applesauce that I was trying to make. Thanks for the instructions. I saw apples last week for $.50 a pound. I might try this yet!
