Applesauce

Ingredients

• 12 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and coarsely chopped
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Preparation

1. Cook all ingredients in a Dutch oven over low heat, stirring often, 10 minutes. (Sugar will dissolve and apples will begin to break down and release juices.) Increase heat to medium, and cook, stirring often, 25 minutes or until thickened. Spoon into hot sterilized jars, and seal. Store in refrigerator up to 1 month.
