In a large pot over medium heat, combine the apples, water, sugar, cinnamon and cloves (if using).
Bring to a simmer and allow to simmer for 15 minutes or until the apples have softened.
Using a potato masher or a fork, mash the apples until you have applesauce. Alternatively, you can pulse the mixture in a blender if you prefer a super smooth applesauce.
Enjoy!
