Why not just use apple juice?

You can just use apple juice!! Tree top, motts, or store brand are great. You have to look in the ingredients though to make sure there is NO extra stuff you don't want. You want the ingredients to say apple juice from concentrate, water, ascorbic acid.

It's what I use, and I comes out really good. I like my cider sweet, but this way it comes out dry. Which is good too.

my wife made applesauce last week it's just sitting there sounds like a pretty good idea to use

Sounds like it's a lot more trouble than it's worth to me, but go ahead. Let us know how it turns out. Fermented, boozy applesauce & water...
More for you.

One thing to be careful of is that fruit pulp will get boueyed up at first by the CO2- in too small a jug/carboy you can jam your neck and get some nasty mess.

I myself would use the sauce AND apple juice, the resulting mix being not unlike a VERY unfiltered pressed apple cider. Maybe. I would not use water, if you do, use distilled.
