I like Gala to eat, but have never tried them for sauce.

Do you cook the apples in your crockpot? How long? A friend just mentioned that she used her electric roaster turned low overnight. I’m thinking these are both good ideas, because you could have a lot of apples ready to process at once.

I’ve dipped apple slices in lemon juice before to prevent browning. Never used it in applesauce though. I don’t think mine really changes colors in the freezer or gets brown, but I probably don’t notice things like that like some people would. I don’t really remember it changing a lot when I canned it either, but it has been a while since I canned instead of froze! 🙂

Your applesauce was yummy this summer when we were there!

That’s pretty handy to have fruit trees readily accessible to you! I don’t know for sure what kind of apples these were either, but the sauce is delish!

We apparently don’t eat a lot of applebutter, because I still have some that I made a couple years ago!
