So we have this apple tree in our backyard that decided to produce tons of delicious apples for the first time ever. The apples were somewhat misshapen and holey, so they were perfect for applesauce. I made the sauce the first week our Spanish exchange student was with us, and she taught us that applesauce is called "compota" in Spanish (like compote...get it? get it?).
Applesauce:
apples
water
sugar, to taste
lemon juice, to taste
cinnamon, to taste
Cut up the apples into small pieces. Place in a large pot, add some water and lemon juice and cinnamon, and cook on medium-high, stirring constantly, until soft and mushy. Taste and add sugar if you want it sweeter. Use a potato masher to mash the sauce if desired. Enjoy!
