    Another fabulously easy recipe from the milk allergy mom goddess, No Whey Mama - "I really, really like homemade applesauce. And so do the kids. For years I labored under the delusion that it was hard to make, but now I know the truth! Let me share it with you, so that you may enjoy homemade applesauce goodness of your own. Here's the secret: get thee a food mill. Then you don't have to worry about all of that peeling and coring."
    Author: Sarah Hatfield
    Serves: 3 cups
    Ingredients
    • 8-10 tart apples, washed (We’re looking for middle-of-the-road apples here. Not Delicious, not Granny Smith. Whatever is growing locally right now.)
    • water
    • dark brown sugar (optional)
    • lemon juice (optional)
    • cinnamon (optional)
    Instructions
    1. Wash the apples and cut them into chunks.
    2. Put them in a pan with enough water to just cover the bottom of the pan.
    3. Simmer, covered, for about 15-20 minutes, until the apples are soft.
    4. Run the apples through the food mill over a clean bowl.
    5. Discard the seeds and peels left in the mill.
    6. Taste the applesauce, and add a tiny bit (1-2 teaspoons) of dark brown sugar if desired.
    7. If the applesauce isn’t tart enough, add a shot of lemon juice.
    8. Stir cinnamon into the applesauce or serve with cinnamon on top if desired.
    Notes
    Of course, you can always peel and core the apples before you cook them, then mash them with a potato masher. But I am a food mill convert. Plus, I like the way the apple skins turn the applesauce pink.
