If you made our Skillet-Baked Applesauce, you probably have a lot of apple peels and pieces. Don't throw them away though, you can use them to make your house smell amazing!
All you need to do is combine a few simple ingredients, place on your stove-top, boil and then drop down to a simmer. Even better, if you have a wood-burning stove in your home, place this on top and it'll do all the work.
