Apple Butter
A couple of weeks ago we picked about 80 apples! My husband said he wanted lot of apple butter this year! Here is the recipe that I've been using. I tweaked it a bit from last year and am happier with the thicker consistency.
Crock-Pot Apple Butter
15 apples, cored and cut into pieces (keep skins on)
2 cups apple cider (or substitute apple juice or water)
3 cups sugar
2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. ground cloves
Put apples and cider into crock-pot on low for 10 hours. (I do it overnight.)
In the morning, barely puree--don't liquify! Add it back to the crock-pot and put in the sugar and spices. Cook on low for 1 more hour.
Now you can simply put it in the refrigerator (it will keep for several weeks). Or put in freezer containers to freeze. Or can it; process 10 minutes.
