Homemade apple sauce

Ingredients:

• Zest and juice of 2 large navel oranges
• Zest and juice of 1 lemon
• 1.5 kg (about 6-8 pcs.) apples Granny Smith
• 1.5 kg (about 6-8 pcs.) sweet red apples, such as Macoun, McIntosh, or Winesap
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed firmly)
• 4 tbsp (60 g) unsalted butter
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ground allspice

Preparation:

1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
   
   Place the zest and juice of the oranges and lemon in a large bowl. Peel the apples, cut them into quarters, remove the cores (reserve the peels of 2 red apples), and toss them with the juice.
   
   Place the apples, reserved peels, and juice in an enamel saucepan or non-reactive Dutch oven. Add the brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and allspice, and cover.
   
   Bake for 1.5 hours or until the apples are tender. Remove and discard the red apple peels. Whisk until smooth and serve the applesauce warm or at room temperature.
