My first experience with apple butter was at an Amish restaurant in Shipshewana, Indiana. At the time we had a small orchard, so I decided to try to replicate this yummy treat.

Categories     Fruit Sauces

Time 18h25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 lb tart apples (about 20 apples)
3 c apple cider or juice or water
2 c white sugar
1 c brown sugar
2 Tbsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp cloves

Steps:

  • 1. Wash and quarter apples. Place in 4-6 quart kettle or Dutch oven with the water/juice. Cook until soft, about 15 minutes - 1/2 hour. Press through food mill. (If you don't have a food mill, you'll have to peel and core the apples before you cook them.)
  • 2. Place resulting apple sauce into slow cooker or small Nesco roaster. Set to low or 220ºF and cover. Let cook overnight.
  • 3. In the morning, add sugars and spices. Cook at least another 4 or more hours or until mixture is quite dark. If you want super smooth apple butter, whisk with immersion blender when you're done cooking.
  • 4. NOTE - I cook the apples in smaller batches and use part of the liquid for each batch. They get soft quicker that way!
  • 5. NOTE 2: The last time I made this, I let it cook in the crock pot the second day until that afternoon, so way more that 4 hours.

I followed the recipe exactly and my apple butter turned out burnt. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
