Homemade Applesauce in Crockpot

6 medium apples

1/2 cup Water

1 tsp. – 1 tbsp. Cinnamon

1 tsp. Sugar {this can be adjusted based upon the sweetness of the apples you use}

1/2 tsp. Vanilla Extract

Peel and core apples.
Chop up into chunky pieces.
Place apples in crockpot.
In separate bowl, combine water, cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla.
Pour mixture over apples in crockpot, and stir around, so apples are evenly coated.
Cover crockpot, and cook on low for 4 hours, or until soft.
Once apples are soft, remove from crockpot and mash with a hand masher.
This will make a chunky applesauce.
For creamier applesauce, mix with a hand mixer.
