Applesauce


Thank you so much for sending in apples for our Apple Week.  The children used the apples in so many different ways: identifying parts of the apple, the life cycle of an apple, graphing our favorite apples, writing about apples using our 5 senses, reading a variety of text formats, and much more!  On Friday, our class read a recipe and then made applesauce in the classroom.  



Crock Pot Applesauce

Ingredients:
8 apples
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions:

1.  Peel, core and cut the apples into small pieces.
2.  Put the apple pieces into a slow cooker.
3.  Pour in the water.
4.  Turn the slow cooker on low and cook for 3 hours or until soft.
5.  Add the cinnamon and cook for an additional 30 minutes (optional).
6.  Stir the apples or use a potato masher to break up the apples.
7. Enjoy!
