Apple Week

Thank you so much for sending in apples.  The children had so much fun using them in different ways!  It was a great learning experience for the children.

 
Below is the recipe we used:
 
 
Crock Pot Applesauce
Ingredients:
22 apples
½ cup water 
1 tbsp. sugar  (or no sugar added if preferred)
½ teaspoon cinnamon   

Directions:

1. Peel, core, and cut the apples.

2. Place cut apples into a slow-cooking pot.

3. Add water to the apples.

4. Cover and cook on high for about 3 hours, until the apples are very soft. 

5. Add sugar (less can be used if preferred) and cook for another 30 minutes.
 
6.  Mash the apples, if needed, with a potato masher.

7. Sprinkle with cinnamon.

8. Enjoy!
