There’s nothing better than homemade applesauce in the Crock-Pot! It’s easy and delicious!

Happy Tuesday! I don’t know about you, but it seems like the holiday craziness is already underway over here. How are we so darn busy like out of nowhere? The days are literally flying by. And I just realized yesterday that Thanksgiving is in 9 days. NINE. DAYS. And guess how much I have planned so far? Zip. Zilch. Nada. I need to get it together. For real people.

So, speaking of Crock-Pot awesomeness, lets talk about homemade applesauce in the Crock-Pot, which is the best and easiest way to make homemade applesauce, ever!

I know what you’re thinking, “oh man, peeling all of those apples is quite the undertaking and is definitely not time-saving”, and you’re absolutely right! Which is why I don’t peel them. Not a single one. I just wash them (really well), chop them up, and throw them in the Crock-Pot with the rest of the ingredients and let it go. It really is that simple.

It is (hands down) the best applause you’ll ever eat!

Kristine’s tip: If you find the texture a bit to coarse, just process the applesauce in the food processor for a few minutes prior to jarring it up.
