What a pleasure to see this Chop Chop Family episode An Apple a Day. I have fond memories of making applesauce and apple butter in the crockpot after a fun family trip to Apple Hill. Golden Delicious Apples are my favorite because they are sweet and cook well for so many recipes. When they are fresh and slightly green they are sweet, tangy, crunchy and yummy. This year after a family trip to Apple Hill I cooked Golden Delicious apples and oatmeal, then froze some in individual portions to enjoy cinnamon apple oatmeal with pecans to warm me up on several cold mornings.
An Apple a Day offers a recipe for applesauce and ideas for different delicious additions. For Thanksgiving I like to make Cranberry Applesauce, or cranberries with diced peeled apples cooked until tender. Enjoy some apples anyway you like them cooked or raw.
