Chunky Applesauce


The only problem with this applesauce is that it is so good, you'll never want the stuff from a jar again. The recipe is from my 1950 edition of The Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook. Grab your favourite Bozo spoon and dig in1

You Will Need:

2 quarts sliced apples (I used Mac's because they cook quickly and have a good flavour)
2 cups water
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch of salt


Cook the apples in the water at a simmer until they fall apart (you can help them along with a potato masher). Add everything else, stir and cook a few minutes longer until it thickens. Remove from heat. Cool a bit before transferring to fridge to cool.
