Homemade crockpot applesauce

Ever wonder what to do with those apples that haven’t yet gone bad, but are not as crisp as they should be?
Make applesauce!
Here’s my recipe:
*about 7 of any type of apples, peeled and chopped (a mix of green and red apples works very well)
*approx 1/2 cup of orange juice
*cinnamon sprinkled to taste
*about 1/3 cup of brown sugar/sugar substitute/agave nectar (optional)
Cook in a crock pot on high until the mixture is boiling. You can then blend the applesauce with a hand mixer/food processor if you like a thin type applesauce, or feel free to leave the apples chopped.
Great served warm,  your house will smell AMAZING! Perfect for Fall!

Enjoy!
