Ingredients

3 pounds apples - peeled, cored and chopped
3 cups water
1 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

Gather all of your ingredients to begin making the applesauce.
Place the apples in a large saucepan and cover with just enough water. Simmer over medium-low heat until the apples become tender, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the water.
Process the apples through a food mill or purée them in a blender. Return the puréed apples to the saucepan. Stir in the sugar and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved and the applesauce has thickened, about 3 to 5 minutes.
