Apples, Apples, and More Apples!

I've spent the last week trying to use up all the apples from our Skytop trip. We started with Apple Chicken on Monday night. Tomorrow I plan to try this Apple Cream Cheese Bundt Cake with Praline Glaze. After today's recipe (which is the point of this blog post), I had three apples left over, so I decided that Apple Fritters sounded good. I'll make those on Saturday so that my husband will be home to get some fresh out of the grease!

Anyway, today I made my mom's famous homemade applesauce! She got it out of an old cookbook (which I'm sure is out of print now) about cooking with honey. So I can't really give credit to the author at this time. If I figure it out, I'll come back and add it! UPDATE: I found out from my mom that she actually got the recipe from a friend in Indiana 28 years ago. She jotted it down on the inside back cover of her cooking with honey cookbook, so that's why I remember it as coming from that book!

I'm going to follow blogging protocol and post a wordy description along with pictures of my attempts to follow the recipe and then post the actual recipe in word form below. If you're like me and you just followed this on Pinterest and you don't care about my witty descriptions, you can just skip to the bottom and read the recipe!
