Chunky Applesauce Recipe With Cranberries

Step 1

Peel and core apples and cut into small cubes. Put into a heavy pan with 1/2 inch water. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently.

Step 2

When the apples start to soften, add cinnamon to taste. If the apples need sweetening, add sugar, a tablespoon at a time.

Step 3

Remove from heat when the apples are soft but still retain their shape. Cover and let stand for one hour before refrigerating until ready to serve.

Step 4

To serve, top the applesauce with cranberries and snippets of mint. Garnish with a spring of fresh mint.
