One of my favorite things in the fall, is the scent of apples and cinnamon; whether it is from a seasonal candle or something with those two ingredients, baking in the oven. Apples from the orchard, taste so much better than those purchased year round at the grocery store and are so delicious to bake or cook with.
Crockpot Cranberry Applesauce Recipe
4 apples, peeled, cored and chopped (any variety)
1 cup fresh cranberries
1/4 cup apple cider or water
Juice from 1 lemon
2 Tsp cinnamon
Put all ingredients in a crock pot. Cook on low for 6 hours.
Note: With no added sugar, this will be tart. Add sugar to your taste, if you prefer a sweeter applesauce.
Have a wonderful weekend :-)
Vicki

Sounds yummy -- even if just for the aroma in the house111
ReplyDeleteOh I can smell it thru the screen, is that possible? Sure it is:) Thanks for the recipe! Have a blessed weekend, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great, Vicki! I was searching for cranberries this week in the store and they had none...I'm sure they will shortly though. Have a great wknd!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds wonderful and so fallish!! I love homemade applesauce. It is so much better than store bought. I'm sure the cranberries will add a special touch. Thanks for sharing.

Mmmmm! My mouth is watering just thinking about that wonderful aroma of applesauce and cranberries!
ReplyDeleteLooks so tasty. I prefer the tart and love cranberries in and on anything.

I can just imagine the incredible fragrance from your applesauce with the addition of cranberries. Such a pretty color, too.

Vicki, I'm going to try this recipe! I love applesauce but the addition of the cranberries sounds inspired. Thanks so much for joining in this week. I don't know whether I've asked you this before, but where in MIchigan do you live? I was born and raised in Michigan - in Dearborn - and spent a lot of time in northern Michigan, as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for joining in this week!

Vicki, that sounds delicious. I love that first photo, too. I always can my McIntosh apple sauce (from our tree) without sugar or cinnamon. I figure people can add it later if they want. I like the addition of cranberries here! I just bought a pound or so of cranberries to string and hang above our cookstove in the kitchen. They will dry quickly, I suspect, and add a festive touch. Thanks for this recipe. :-)
ReplyDeleteMy neighbor makes homemade applesauce-- it IS really good!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea. I looked for cranberries in the store just this week and they aren't in yet. I will have to try this one.

Sounds delicious, and so easy! I'll have to try it.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds very delicious.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea and sounds delish! ~ (A Creative Harbor)
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious and so glad you found some way to use those apples that you can enjoy in spite of the diabetes. I have neighbors who make tons of applesauce every year with apples his parents buy in the mountains at auction - in fact I'm going to their house in just a bit to watch them. Love this time of year with all the beauty and the fun goings-on. Thanks for sharing with us!

Hi Vicki! Oh, this looks and sounds so good! Right now is such a great time for tasty apples! Thank you so much for popping in to see me and you are a sweetie,
ReplyDeleteShelia ;)
Lovely photos, I'm sure your house smells delicious.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds perfect for my husband who is also a diabetic. I would love to find fresh apples- but they are a rarity around here.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy even though I'm not diabetic. Most of us eat way too much sugar.
ReplyDeleteYUM... and beautiful captures too!
ReplyDeleteI think cranberries liven up just about any recipe -- such a pretty color.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing at Your Sunday Best.
