Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 12 - medium cooking apples (Golden Delicious or McIntosh) peeled, cored, and sliced - about 14 cups
  2. 2 cups - sugar
  3. 1/2 teaspoons - ground cinnamon
  4. 1 1/2 teaspoons - ground cloves
  5. 1/2 teaspoons - ground nutmeg
  6. 1/4 teaspoons - salt

Directions:

Place apples in a 5- or 6-quart slow cooker. Stir in sugar, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and salt.

Cover; cook on high for 4 hours. Stir. Uncover and cook on high for 2 to 2-1/2 hours more or until apples are very tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, stirring occasionally.

Cool mixture at least 1 hour or cover and chill overnight. Process with an immersion blender (or place half of mixture at a time into blender or food processor and process - may result in lighter color and thinner texture than immersion blender).

Ladle apple butter into half-pint freezer containers, leaving 1/2-inch headspace at the top. Seal and label. Store 1 week in the refrigerator or up to 1 year in the freezer.
