The whole family loves GGs applesauce.
We affectionately call it GGs applesauce (GG is what my kids call their grandma).
When my kids first started eating solids, this was an early food for them.

They still look forward to it as an afterschool snack or dessert.
All the work comes in the prep: peeling, coring, and slicing the apples.
Use exclusively tart apples if youre looking for a tangier taste.

Using a melon baller or small spoon, scoop out the apple core.
Then cut the apple halves in half (making quarters).
Place them in a wide, microwave-safe dish.

Combine the 1 cup water and lemon juice in a small bowl.
Stir in the sugar and ground cinnamon.
Pour the mixture over apples.
Using clean hands or a large spoon, stir the apples to coat in liquid.
Microwave the apples on high for 10 minutes, stopping halfway through to stir.
To test if the apples are done, pierce with a fork or cake tester.
If you have a lower-wattage microwave, you may need to cook the apples for a few more minutes.
Using a potato masher, mash the apples until they break apart and mix fully with the liquid.
This may take a few minutes.
This is a chunky applesauce, so the final mixture wont be totally smooth.
Let cool slightly before enjoying warm or cool.
