It's too easy to just peel them up and let them sit in the crock pot all day. We use a baby seat sized crock pot, and then have applesauce until it's coming out our ears. We eat it plain, put it on pancakes, french toast, use it to dunk things in, like cheese cubes and cookies, and use it as a topping for ice cream. I also do small freezer containers or baggies, and reuse it in the crock pot with pork and chicken. Best thing is...no added sugar. I just put in the apples, a bit of cinnamon, sometimes ginger, and that's it. Sometimes we add raisins too. One more thing...you can do apple bread just like banana bread, just put the apples through a shredder or something. Or muffins, or cookies...great, now I'm hungry. <br/><br/>PS. Thanks for the WW motivation...I lost 3.2 lbs last week. I second and third the applesauce one. It’s too easy to just peel them up and let them sit in the crock pot all day.

We just finished our yearly raid of the Gravensteins in our yard and our neighbors for a ton of homemade apple butter.

Your girls are adorable.

Apple sauce is pretty easy too.

Last year I made apple butter and it took freaking FOREVER to finish cooking. Applesauce is a great way to get a bunch of apples taken care of in a (relative) hurry. You could also try apple jelly. I just made some this week, although I would suggest using a recipe that calls for no added pectin. Mine set so hard it rips the toast! I’ll second (third?) the vote for apple pies.

When frozen, pop out of plate and baggie up! Then in the middle of winter and you want fresh baked apple pie, there it is in the freezer!!
