Turn apples into applesauce in the crockpot or stovetop - it's so easy. And homemade applesauce is healthier than store bought and more delicious too!

• 4 lbs. apples, (about 10 large, pared and cored (I like to use either Honeycrisps or MacIntosh))
• 1/4 - 1/2 cup sugar, (Honeycrisps are sweeter so use the lesser amount of sugar)
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1/2-3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, (depending on your love of cinnamon)
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• Dash salt
• 1 cup water
