There are two apple trees at the Mortensen's house. Dad picked all the apples and today we made applesauce. Here is Dad at the corer and peeler things working hard.
Here are the apples - just a few worm holes - Dad caught them out!
Dad put the apple slices in a pan and I cooked them 15 minutes - then put them in the blender and - hooray - applesauce! We are going to freeze it in these containers since we don't have a canner.
We didn't add any sugar, but Dad asked me if we could put some cinnamon in one - and I remembered reading somewhere that you put Red Hots in - so I got online and sure enough - so we did!
Here's the final result - the pink and red are the Red Hots one - they all taste amazing! We are pretty proud of ourselves - you may get some for Christmas!!
Afton always puts red hots in her apple sauce. Looks yummy! I miss Afton's fruit trees.
