No Fuss Applesauce

All you need is a good covered pot, a potato masher, some apples and cinnamon. Sugar, brown is best, is optional.

Peel, core and slice as many apples, of any variety, as you want. Put them in a pot with "not enough water to cover." Cook on a low flame until soft, add the spices (and sugar if you're sure you need it.) You may have to add a bit more water, but too much water will dilute the flavor.

Cook another few minutes. Turn off heat. Leave it with the cover on to "continue gentle cooking" for another 15-30 minutes. Take the pot off of the stove, mash and serve. It can be served cold.
