Another slow cooker recipe...

Because I'm too darned tired to come up with anything more significant!

I've taken to making this homemade applesauce with some frequency - it was great when I ate fairly strict paleo, because there's no need to add any sugar.   I tend to buy a large bag of Pink Lady or Macoun apples at BJ's and just go to town.  You can get fancy and mix apple varieties or add a few pears to add some depth of flavor, though!

Slow Cooker Applesauce
4 pounds of apples (or an apple/pear combo), peeled and cored
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 cinnamon stick or a generous sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice

Combine all ingredients in slow cooker, cook on low for 6-8 hours.   Remove cinnamon stick (if used).  After cooking, process apples with a potato masher for a chunkier texture or an immersion blender for a very smooth texture.  Enjoy!
