Recipe: Chunky Applesauce

This recipe for chunky applesauce is an adaptation of a number of recipes I found. I adjusted it until I liked the consistency and flavor. The recipe is quick and easy.

The recipe calls for Golden Delicious apples. I tried it with Granny Smith apples with great success, I just upped the brown sugar to 1 cup. I particularly liked the sweet and tart flavor.

Enjoy!
