Kitchen Notes
This applesauce keeps for a week in the refrigerator. Stir into oatmeal, spread on buttered toast, serve alongside pork, or dig in with a spoon for a healthy, all natural back-to-basics snack. Avoid red delivious apples, they lack texture and taste. Fill recycled jars with this fall treat and give to friends and family.
