Fresh Applesauce

Ingredients

• 8 cooking apples, peeled, cored and chopped

• 1/2 cup Splenda

• 1 tbsp. cinnamon

• Juice of 1/2 lemon

• 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Directions

1. Place apples in a 5-quart pot. Add Splenda, cinnamon, lemon juice, and vanilla. Add just enough water to cover half the apples (to prevent a watery sauce).
