Slow Cooker Applesauce /0 Smartpoints




INGREDIENTS:
8 medium-large apples, peeled, cored and cut into wedges
1/4 cup water
Cinnamon, to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Place the peeled apple wedges into your slow cooker and add water. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours. Mash apples lightly with the back of a spook or a fork (apples will fall apart easily). Add cinnamon (I would start with ½ teaspoon and see if you want more), stir in and continue to cook on low for another 15 minutes. For chunkier applesauce, serve as is. For smooth applesauce, use an immersion blender or place applesauce in a food processor and pulse until desired consistency is reached. Can serve warm or cold. Makes about 3 cups.



WEIGHT WATCHERS SMARTPOINTS:



0 per serving (SP calculated using the recipe builder on weightwatchers.com)

3 per serving* (P+ calculated using the recipe builder on weightwatchers.com)

*Weight Watchers PointsPlus counts unsweetened applesauce as 0 points+ in the WW tracker, so I am personally counting this as 0 WW pointsplus. For consistency I listed the pointsplus above using the Weight Watchers recipe builder, but in this instance I am going to go by their applesauce listing – do whatever you feel comfortable with!
