For a chunkier applesauce, mash lightly and leave some larger pieces of apple. To prevent sticking, add a tablespoon of butter or coconut oil to the pot along with the other ingredients. If you prefer a sweeter applesauce, use sweeter apple varieties or increase the amount of brown sugar. For a spiced variation, add a pinch of nutmeg or ground cloves along with the cinnamon.
