Homemade Apple Sauce
Ingredients
- 3 large honey crisp apples*
- 1½ cups (354.9 ml) water
- Juice of ½ medium orange
- ¼ cup (50 g) light brown sugar
- Cinnamon, to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Peel, core and cut apples into 1- to 2-inch pieces. Place apples and water in a microwave-proof container. Cover.
