We used the exact same recipe, only doubled. It came out sooooo delicious!! We used a mix of Pink Lady apples and Fuji apples. Next time I want to try a mix of apples and pears! I am so happy with the results. We made it late at night because I wanted it for breakfast with pancakes in the morning :) Even our son loves it!!
Here is a picture of the ingredients for the glaze as well as the chunked up apples in the crockpot. We took the time to peel the apples and it's totally worth it.
Ingredients:
-12 medium apples
-1 cup of water
-2 tablespoons of cinnamon (or more/less to taste)
-2 teaspoons of sugar (or more/less to taste)
-1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Recipe:
Core and peel and chop apples into 1/2 inch chunks. Place the apples in the crockpot. In a separate bowl, combine the water, cinnamon, sugar and vanilla extract. Mix well. Pour the mixture over the apples and spread it evenly, stirring around to coat well. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4-5 hours. Once the apples are soft, mash them up into the desired texture. You can use a handmixer or food processor to make it super smooth. We chose to leave it chunky. Enjoy!
