Ingredients
- 8 medium-sized Apples (e.g., Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji)
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Peel, core, and chop the apples into small chunks.
In a slow cooker, combine the chopped apples, water, granulated sugar (if using), ground cinnamon, and fresh lemon juice.
Set the slow cooker to low heat and let the apples cook for 8 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Once the apples are soft and fragrant, use a potato masher or immersion blender to mash the apples into a smooth or chunky consistency, based on your preference.
Stir in the vanilla extract for an added layer of flavor.
Allow the applesauce to cool slightly before serving.
Serve the warm applesauce in bowls with a generous scoop of frozen yogurt on top.
Garnish with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
