Canning Applesauce

Our apple tree had a lot of fruit on it, but if you saw my earlier post, you would know that most of the apples had to be thrown away. We only had this many left:I have an apple-peeler-corer-slicer, but I found that using a paring knife was sharper and more efficient:

After the apples are cut, they are placed in a solution so they don't turn brown: I placed a few apple slices on my food dehydrator, and then I placed the rest of the apples in a stock pot with a little water and cooked them down and then ran them through my blender.

I then added sugar and cinnamon.Then I packed the applesauce into hot jars and canned them in my steam canner.

In the end, I only had six jars of delicious applesauce, and one jar of dried apple wedges. Not much and it's already going fast.
