Directions
Wash the apples and chop them up without peeling. Squeeze lemon juice over them as you cut them. Put apples in crockpot with cranberry juice (use 1 cup if you want the applesauce thick, more if you want it thin). Stir in sugar to suit your taste.
Let apples stew on low for 6 to 8 hours. About an hour or two before serving, stir in cranberries or craisins.
The applesauce is a very pretty pink and the cranberries & juice give it a nice zing.
