SLOW COOKER CIDER APPLESAUCE (NO SUGAR ADDED)

Steps:

• Layer apples into a slow cooker. Sprinkle cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg over the apples.
• Cook on High until apples are soft, 4 to 5 hours. Whisk apples vigorously for a chunkier-style applesauce. Puree with an immersion blender for a smoother applesauce.
