I know, I know. Who has 12 hours for anything, except working?<\/p>\n

But this is warm, cinnamon-y applesauce that cooks in a slow cooker. Let’s do it!<\/p>\n

There’s an indoor fruit stand down the street, and they sell juicing apples. Funny enough, some grocery stores and lots of farms\/orchards growing apples will do the same. Be kind to me, I’m new at this whole bulk produce idea. I got 1\/2 case of apples for $4…there are probably 8 varieties of apples totaling 60-70 apples, I’d say. Some are bruised, funny shaped or really small, but a little peeling and slicing makes these apples perfect for juice and…applesauce!<\/p>\n
