Crockpot Applesauce With Cranberries (Vegan) Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
10 12 medium apples
1 to 2 cups cranberry juice
1/2 lemon juiced
2 tbsp sugar, or up to 1/4cup if
1 you want it sweet
1/4 to 1/2 cup dried cranberries
1 or craisins (sweetened
1 dried
1 cranberries)
Recipe Preparation
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.
