My mother in law can make a good applesauce. Usually the urge strikes when I see mom-in- law making it. I was thinking about apples and their variations the other day when Red Hot Cinnamon Applesauce came to my mind. Then I was reading fellow blogger Julie's site named Noshtalgia and she had made the applesauce.
Well that got my corer spinning. I pulled out the big guns! I sliced, peeled , and cored those big boys in no time.
Fill up your pot with 10-12 apples.
The original recipe called for 3/4 cups of water.
But,I used 3/4 cups of apple cider.(wise choice you say!)
Add: 3/4 cups sugar and
1/4 cup Red Hot candies.
Let simmer for 15 minutes
Now that pot of applesauce was gone before I could even tell you about it.
It was sweet and Cinnamony.
It was like dessert warm off the stove and a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream would of made a great accomplice.
The cold leftovers made a fine breakfast.
I'm off in search of more apples!
Looks great Meg, I cannot believe that I had forgotten about that recipe especially since it was one of my favorites as a child. If it wasn't for seeing it at the hospital cafeteria of all places...
