Apples are awesome all year round, but they’re particularly lovely in the fall. Everyone may be focusing on pumpkin, but true autumn aficionados know that apples are where it’s at. If you’re part of Team Apple this season, you need to make this apple butter.
Ingredients:
- 5 pounds apples
- 2 tablespoons vanilla
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 4 teaspoons cinnamon
Method:
- Peel and core the apples, then slice them into quarters. Cut them smaller if they are really big.
- Place the apple slices in a slow cooker and cook for 6-8 hours, stirring every couple of hours.
- Once cooked, blend the softened apples with the sugar, vanilla, and spices.
- Spoon into jars and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week; or freeze for up to a year.
