Not much beats homemade apple sauce and making it in the crockpot will make the house smell heavenly and feel just like fall. Plus, using the crockpot is a great way to make a healthy snack without a lot of work. Apple sauce is a wonderful snack. Its texture and sweetness make it a comfort food – reminding us of childhood. For me, it brings me back to my grandparent’s kitchen. My grandpa always had a big pot of apple sauce going. I think if he was able to try my version, he’d be impressed.
