Prepare the apples by peeling them if a smoother texture is preferred, then chop them into chunks.

Place the apple pieces into a pan over medium heat.

Add a little bit of water to prevent sticking.

Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the apples for flavor.

Cover the pan and let the apples simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes until they become soft and easily mashable.

Once the apples are soft, mash them using a potato masher or a fork until reaching the desired consistency (smooth or chunky).

For an even smoother texture, blend the applesauce.

If the applesauce is too thick, add a little more water to reach the preferred thickness.

Taste the applesauce and adjust the cinnamon if needed.
