Grandma Marge's Applesauce

Homemade applesauce is easy, fun, delicious and nutritious! Viv visits her friend, David, who cooks up a batch of his Grandma Marge's DIY applesauce for an autumn treat. If you give it a try, your place will fill with the aroma of apples and cinnamon. It's a fall staple at my house, and it is yummy alone, on ice cream or baked into pies, muffins and breads. This recipe is the best!
