Cranberry Applesauce

Different and good. The only apple I don’t use is Red Delicious. Just about any other apple works well,
especially a combo of Granny Smith and McIntosh or your favorite. 

Here's what you'll need: 
3 pounds apples, peeled if desired, seeded and chunked up,
1/2 to 1  bag cranberries, depending upon how much you like cranberries and how tart you want the
      sauce to be,
1 cup light brown sugar plus more to taste,
1 cup water, Cinnamon to taste.  

Spray a crockpot and add everything.  Cook on low for 3-5 hours or high about 2 or so, until apples are tender. Serve hot, room temperature, or chilled.
