(I have a *reliable* parent peel, slice, and dice 10 apples and bring in the pieces in a tupperware container. I tell them to squeeze some lemon juice over the apples to keep them fresh. In the email that I send that parent, I include a picture of what the apple pieces should look like. They are always appreciative of it!)

You can make apple sauce without all the sugar, too. It’s still really yummy and the kids are better for it!

Hi Kristen!
Love, love, love this blog post! Question: How many students does this recipe serve? I have 25 and want to make sure each student will get some. Next week is Color Week and this would be a blast to do for red day! (Or green day or yellow day
Thank you for sharing!

This recipe fed 13 people. As you can see, I used tall cups (because that is what I had at my house) and each child got about 1/4- 1/2 of that cup. If you bring in smaller cups (like the bathroom sized cups) I am sure that it would give 25 children a taste. I also have a “small” crock pot so I can only fit about 10 diced up apples in mine. if you have a larger crock pot, you could surely add more apples than mine allowed!

I’m soo excited! I’m heading to school here in a bit and I totally going to do this with my class this week! I think it will be so since were already going to work on apples and Johnny Appleseed, cute unit too, I just bought it! I would also like to know how many this will feed, I have 24 students but would like to invite my principal to join us for this treat
Thank you!

I am a guy and I have never prepared anything like this. So I tried it and I love it
Can I prepare it this same manner and then “can” it to store it for a later time or will it go bad if it sits after a period of time… or would “canning” it be an entire different process. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thank you

We are making our applesauce (and having an apple-filled day) tomorrow! I was “refreshing” my brain on how to make applesauce and came across your post. I will be sure to link back to your blog when I post it on mine.
