10-12 each apples
1-2 cup cranberry juice
1/2 each lemon, juiced
2 tablespoon sugar or up to 1/4cup if you want it sweet
1/4-1/2 cup dried cranberries or craisins (sweetened dried cranberries)
Wash the apples and chop them up without peeling. Squeeze lemon juice over them as you cut them. Put apples in crockpot with cranberry juice (use 1 cup if you want the applesauce thick, more if you want it thin). Stir in sugar to suit your taste. Let apples stew on low for 6-8 hours. About an hour or two before serving, stir in cranberries or craisins. The applesauce is a very pretty pink and the cranberries & juice give it a nice zing.
