Pour into an 8 x 8 inch pan and bake at 350 for about 30-35 minsutes, or until the top springs back when touched.

Note: This is a recipe from the vita-mix cookbook that originally called for oil, but I use my own home-made applesauce. I buy bags of apples when they are cheap and just cut them in fourths (cut out the seeds and stem) and fill up the crockpot with them. I then just put a few dashes of cinnamon on them (no liquid) then cover and stew on low all day. When they are mushy I just transfer it to the vita-mix (a blender is just as good I suppose) and let it rip for a few seconds. Voila.....heavenly smell in the house all day while it stews, plus incredibly delicious (and inexpensive) applesauce after it's done! I pour the applesauce into pint size jars and freeze them until needed.
