applesauce!

Today felt like an applesauce day. I didn't have much but I made it work. Here is how I made mine:

• 2 apples cored, medium diced, peeling optional (I like the peel, what can I say?)
• 2 heaping tablespoons sugar, to taste
• splash of vanilla extract (not essential but it makes your house smell amazing)
• a couple shakes of cinnamon, also to taste

Place diced apples into a medium saucepan, fill with water just enough to cover (apples tend to float so if it's a little less than covered, that is just fine). Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer 10 minutes. Mash apples with plastic spoon. Add sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. Simmer until desired consistency. If it's still a little watery, it should evaporate off as it cools.

You can also easily double, triple or quadruple this recipe to suit your needs.
