Applesauce

apples
water
cinnamon (optional)

Chop apples. Put in a saucepan with some water over medium heat on stove. Cover. When apples start sticking turn down to low and stir regularly. Make sure there's enough water, but not much is needed because the apples release their water. When the applesauce is the desired consistency (Dad likes his chunky), add cinnamon to taste. Serve hot or cold. Good luck waiting until it's cold.
