I started working on a few extra seasonal projects to keep my mind off that due date last week circled in red. One that I had been meaning to do was make homemade granny smith applesauce in the crockpot. I love the tartness of granny smiths and of course, I’m all about apples right now (we go through at least 6 or 7 a day at our house). There is very very little sugar in this at all, so it’s a delicious guilt-free snack.
