Categories     Apple     Cheese

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 package (8 ounce) light cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup apple butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Place cream cheese, apple butter, vanilla, and cinnamon in the container of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Process until just smooth, about 20 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the container and process again until combined, if necessary.
  • Scrape the spread into a small bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until slightly firm, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use the right apples: Granny Smith apples are the best choice for apple butter, as they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that pairs well with the sweetness of the brown sugar.
  • Cook the apples slowly: Cooking the apples slowly over low heat allows the flavors to develop and the apples to caramelize slightly.
  • Use a food processor or blender to puree the apples: This will give the apple butter a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Add spices to taste: Common spices used in apple butter include cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
  • Canning the apple butter: Canning is a great way to preserve apple butter so that you can enjoy it all year long. Be sure to follow the instructions in the recipe carefully to ensure that the apple butter is properly canned.

Conclusion:

Apple butter cream cheese spread is a delicious and versatile spread that can be used on toast, bagels, crackers, or even as a dip for fruit. It's also a great way to use up leftover apples.
