Crockpot applesauce with cranberries (vegan)
1 servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 10 | 12 medium apples | |
| 1 | To 2 cups cranberry juice | |
| ½ | Lemon juiced | |
| 2 | tablespoons | Sugar, or up to 1/4cup if |
| You want it sweet | ||
| ¼ | To 1/2 cup dried cranberries | |
| Or \"craisins\" (sweetened | ||
| Dried | ||
| Cranberries) | ||
Directions
Wash the apples and chop them up without peeling. Squeeze lemon juice over them as you cut them.
Put apples in crockpot with cranberry juice -- use 1 cup if you want the applesauce thick, more if you want it thin. Stir in sugar to suit your taste.
Let apples stew on low for 6-8 hours. About an hour or two before serving, stir in cranberries or craisins. (All I found at my store was craisins--since they're sweetened, I used less sugar.) The applesauce is a very pretty pink and the cranberries & juice give it a nice zing.
As you can see, the recipe is simple and forgiving -- let the apples stew a little longer or a little less ~- the longer you stew them the mushier the applesauce will be. It warms up nicely, or you can eat it cold.
