Applesauce

12 cups apples; peeled, cored, and chopped into chunks
produce protectant or lemon juice
1 cups sugar (or up to 2 if you want it sweeter, less if you don't)
2 tsp cinnamon
1 cup water

Sprinkle produce protectant or lemon juice on apples as you peel and slice them.  Put ingredients into crockpot or large saucepan.  In crockpot, cook on high for 3-4 hours; in saucepan, cook on medium heat for 35-35 minutes, until apples are tender and can be mashed with a fork.  Put into hot, sterile jars and process in hot water bath.  Makes 2 quarts.
