This is comfort food! This is the perfect fall or winter side dish with dinner. It's delicious served warm or cold.
5 large apples (peeled and cored)
5 red plums (peeled and pitted)
1/4 cup apple juice
1/4 cup sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
4 Tbsp butter
Peel and core/pit your apples and plums. If you like a sweet applesauce, use McIntosh apples or Red Delicious apples. If you like your applesauce a little on the tart side, use Granny Smith apples.
Melt butter in a medium sized deep skillet. Add the apples and plums. Allow to cook slightly.
Add the apple juice, sugar, and cinnamon sticks. Stir well and cook over medium-high heat until mixture begins to bubble. Reduce heat and cook over low heat for 45 - 50 minutes or until apples and plums are tender.
Remove cinnamon sticks and mash the fruit to make a chunky sauce.

My Grandma passed away at the age of 94. She was a wonderful cook and I was lucky enough to inherit her recipes. Many date back to the 1940s and 50s. Grandma prepared them in a charming country kitchen with no running water and most of her produce came from her garden, not from the grocery store. These are made-from-scratch recipes. I wish I had spent more time with her in the kitchen and . . . I wish I had spent more time with her for so many other reasons.
