Ingredients

tart or bruised apples or crabapple

water

sugar

cinnamon sticks

whole cloves

Directions

Wash apples, if large you can core and peel, otherwise just place whole apples in a large pot with a small amount of water. I have done a large stockpot filled with crabapples, and I've done a 2 quart pot with large apples.

Cover apples and cook on low. Cooking time depends on how many and how large. Stir regularly and check to ensure there is enough water.

Apples are cooked enough when they can be mashed into, well, applesauce. If you cooked whole apples you will need to strain through a sieve, colander or fruit attachment of a mixer.

Once any skin, seeds and stems are removed, return to pot if necessary and add sugar to taste - about 1/4 c. per 4 medium or 8 small apples.

Add 1/2-inch stick cinnamon or 1-2 whole cloves, if desired.

Continue cooking until sugar dissolves.
