A bowl of applesauce

Today’s recipe is coming to you by request of my five year old, thanks to all of the fun apple activities she’s been doing the past couple of weeks in Kindergarten.

Last week her class made applesauce, and she loved it so much she came home begging for us to do the same. So this weekend, that’s just what we did!

It’s been a long time since I’ve made homemade applesauce, and after making it this past Saturday, I can’t believe I’ve waited so long make it again!

In fact, the last time I remember making crockpot applesauce was when I was teaching my own kinder class about six years ago!

A bowl filled with sliced cooked apples

I’m pretty sure I’ve made it at some point since then, but let me tell you this; my house smelled amazing on Saturday, and eating a bowl of this yummy cinnamon-y apple goodness was such a treat!

I’m definitely going to be making this crockpot cinnamon applesauce a lot more often now!

This recipe is crazy easy, too. You just stir everything together and then let the magic happen.

When it’s all done cooking, I just stir mine up with a wire whisk or spoon. The apples fall apart easily and you’re left with a crockpot full of sweet and delicious homemade applesauce!

Oh, and this tastes AMAZING warm! I highly recommend eating it that way (though not steaming hot), but you can also let it cool and store in the refrigerator for later.

This crockpot applesauce makes about 6 servings around 1/2 cup each, which is perfect for our family to eat over a few days time. You can definitely double this recipe if you’d like to make more applesauce, though!
