Time 4h20m

Yield 112

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 apples - peeled, cored, and cut into small cubes
2 cups brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground allspice
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Combine apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice, salt, and cloves in a slow cooker.
  • Cook on High until the apples are tender enough to easily mash with a fork, 4 to 6 hours.
  • Puree apple mixture with an immersion blender until smooth.
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack apple butter into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Linda's 24 Hour Crock Pot Apple Butter image

This is very close in flavor to the Apple Butter you can find and roadside stands in Amish Country, in Lancaster PA, very dark and very thick. I have been making apple butter since 1979 and when I adapted it to the crock pot it was lots easier and less messy. Store in the refrigerator in a jar for two weeks or can in half-pints according to your canner instructions.

3 cinnamon sticks, left whole
1 lemon, juice of
4 cups sugar

Steps:

  • Turn to low and let cook for 24 to 36 hours, stirring down a few times a day. You may need to take the lid off for several hours to let the water evaporate. I usually have to let it go six hours without the lid but my crock pots were invented when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
  • Jar it up and either process it or store in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: For the best flavor, use a combination of sweet and tart apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
  • Peel and core the apples: This will help the apple butter to have a smooth texture.
  • Use a slow cooker: A slow cooker is the best way to make apple butter because it allows the flavors to develop slowly and evenly.
  • Cook the apple butter on low for 8-10 hours: This will give the apple butter time to thicken and develop a rich flavor.
  • Stir the apple butter occasionally: This will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Add spices and sugar to taste: You can add spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves to taste. You can also add sugar to taste, if desired.
  • Can the apple butter: Once the apple butter is finished cooking, you can can it in jars for long-term storage.

Conclusion:

Apple butter is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It can be spread on toast, muffins, or pancakes. It can also be used as a filling for pies and tarts. It is also a great addition to pork, chicken, and fish dishes. With its rich flavor and smooth texture, apple butter is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
