Ingredients

  • 3 lb bag of apples - any variety you like
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • Peel and core the apples. Roughly chop the apples into cubes.
  • Add apples to the crockpot along with the water, vanilla extract, cinnamon, lemon juice and salt.
  • Stir all ingredients together to combine. Close the lid and set crockpot to low. Cook for 6 hours on low.
  • Turn crockpot off. Blend with an immersion blender right in the crockpot OR carefully transfer to a regular blender and blend.
  • Transfer to a container and allow to cool completely. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Notes

  • I like to use honey crisp apples for this, but you can use any kind you like or a blend of multiple kinds. 
  • You can omit the salt if you would like to
  • You can double the amount of cinnamon
