Applesauce

I don't usually make my own applesauce, but if we have a large enough batch of apples that the kids haven't eaten and need to be used, I'll throw this together. Then, of course, my kids love to eat it warm, just because I made it.

About 3lbs. of apples (we had Granny Smiths and Galas)
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 cup lemon juice
About 8 cups apple juice

Core and peel apples. Put them in a pot with lemon and apple juices (this prevents so much discoloration of the apples and prevents having to put in sugar at the end). Boil until very tender. Drain and put apple chunks in large bowl. You can either mash or mix apples to desired consistency. Add cinnamon. Pressure can whatever the kids don't devour.
