Nothing says fall like a bowl of warm homemade applesauce. The flavor of your applesauce will change according to what variety of apples you use, so keep that in mind. You can even mix up and do half sweet apples and half tart. I just use whatever I have on hand and adjust the sugar accordingly. Sometimes I even use pears. Happy harvest! : )

Mmmm. I just made this and I love it. Now I know what to do with soft apples.I added a quarter orange peel on top while it was simmering and oh it smelled wonderful. I took it out and then emulsified the apples. Warm applesauce is something I will be craving now.
