Cranberry Applesauce


This is a great snack to have around the house for the week. Also delicious served warm over ice cream or cold with latkes.

INGREDIENTS
apples (3 lbs) sliced 1/2" thick (use sweet variations and try several kinds for a more complex flavor); remove peels if not organic
cranberries (12 oz) fresh or frozen, I have only used fresh
cinnamon stick (1)
maple syrup (1-2 Tbs) use more if you like, I prefer it less sweet; the sugar also tastes radically different after it cools
water (1/2 cup)
lemon juice (2 tsp) freshly squeezed

DIRECTIONS
  1. Put the chopped apples, cinnamon, cranberries, and water in a pot, bring to a boil.
  2. Cover and simmer until apples soften. Add the maple syrup and mix everything together.
  3. Add the lemon juice.
