Cinnamon-Spiced Applesauce
After tasting this, which is particularly good made with Golden Delicious and Gala apples, you'll never again be satisfied with the purchased variety. If you prefer applesauce with a smoother texture, the cooked apples can be pureed in a food processor rather than mashed with a fork.
