Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 medium apples -about 8 oz/229g
  • 6 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
US - Metric

Instructions

  • Peel, core, and dice the apples.
  • Add apples, water, and sugar to a 1.5-quart slow cooker. Stir, then place the cinnamon stick on top.
  • Cover and cook on High for 3 hours, stirring 2 to 3 times during cooking.
  • Remove the cinnamon stick. Mash with a potato masher or fork for chunky applesauce, or blend with an immersion blender for smooth.

Notes

  • Use a small slow cooker: A 1.5-quart slow cooker is perfect for this single serving recipe.
  • Mash or blend: For a chunkier applesauce, mash the apples with a fork. For a smoother texture, blend the applesauce.
  • Store leftovers: If you happen to have leftovers, store them in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
 
If doubling the recipe, use a 3-quart slow cooker.
