I made two batches, one just as recipe is written and one with out sugar by using other fruits.
This is not by far a diabetic friendly recipe BUT its a great alternative to store bought. She can have in moderation just not all the time.

Homemade Apple Sauce
10-12 Honey Crips Apples – Peeled, Cored and Sliced
½ Cup Brown Sugar (you can substitute with Stevia Brown Sugar, Use ¼ cup. Or omit all together)
½ Tsp Vanilla Extract
¾ Tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Lemon Juice
1 Cup Water
Place your apples in crock pot, add Brown Sugar, Vanilla, Lemon Juice and stir.
Add Water, Stir again
Low – 8 Hrs or High – 4 Hrs
Once apples have cooked, grab your blender and put contents of crock pot into blender.
Blend until desired thickness or Chunkyness (is that a word?? Lol) is reached. Emmerson blender can be used. (do this when apples are still hot)
Store in containers, Last two weeks in Fridge.
*1 Bag of frozen Strawberries or Peaches can be added frozen when you put apples in crockpot. Frozen seem to have the best taste over fresh and they do better than fresh through cooking process. It gives a nice sweetness if you omit the sugar and unique flavor. If you chose to add these, reduce the amount of cinnamon.
This Recipe makes 4-5 Cups (depending on size of apples) This below pictures just shows over 3 cups - my little one demanded some so my picture shows a little less than recipe makes.
