Preparation

Step 1

Pour water into a slow cooker. Add apples; drizzle with lemon juice. Cover and cook on low setting for 6 hours, stirring after 2 hours. Applesauce should be a chunky consistency after 6 hours. If a smoother consistency is preferred, spoon applesauce into a food processor and purée as desired. Stir in brown sugar to taste.
