Steps:
- Peel, core, and chop apples; set apple chunks aside, reserving peels and cores. Combine peels, cores, and 2 cups apple cider in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine chopped apples, sugar, remaining cider, and cinnamon stick in a large, non-aluminum saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until apples begin to fall apart, 20 to 40 minutes.
- Press peel-core mixture through a food mill or sieve placed over a bowl to catch juice. Reserve juice and discard peels and cores. Add juice to cooked apples in the saucepan and return mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until thick, 40 to 60 minutes. Remove and discard cinnamon stick. Stir in pumpkin.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Pour apple-pumpkin mixture into a large, shallow roasting pan.
- Place roasting pan into the preheated oven, leaving door slightly ajar. Bake, stirring every 15 minutes, until thick enough to spread, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- Inspect 6 half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until apple-pumpkin butter is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
- Spoon apple-pumpkin butter into sterilized jars leaving 1/2-inch head space. Wipe rims and threads clean; top with hot lids and screw bands on firmly.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 5 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.

Steps:
- Combine pumpkin puree, sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, salt, cayenne pepper, apple juice, and apple cider vinegar in a deep, heavy-bottomed saucepan; whisk until thoroughly combined. Place over medium-high heat and stir occasionally until simmering.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and reduces by about half, 45 to 60 minutes. The sauce will be very hot, so wear an oven mitt and stir carefully. You may also want to use a splatter guard to keep the sauce from dirtying your stove.
- Once reduced, remove from the stove and let cool for 10 minutes. Toss in butter and whisk until it disappears. Let cool to room temperature, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Transfer pumpkin butter into an airtight container and place in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled and flavors have developed, 8 hours to overnight. Store in the refrigerator.

AIR-FRYER PUMPKIN BISCUITS WITH SPICED APPLE BUTTER
A couple of years ago, one of my friend's parents made pumpkin biscuits for Thanksgiving. I was inspired by the innovative idea but wanted to add my own spin by topping the biscuits with apple butter. I have been experimenting with the air fryer recently and wanted to try to make bread in the machine. - Jessica Burke, Chandler, Arizona

APPLE - PUMPKIN BUTTER
Found this recipe in November 1996 Family Circle. Will be making this up this year to include in some Christmas Baskets for our teachers at the local school. I like this recipe because it can be canned or frozen and will last up to six months that way, or can be refrigerated and will last up to a month. Needless to say, I will be canning mine for the gift baskets, but am hoping to make enough so that I can keep some for myself in the fridge.

PUMPKIN APPLE BUTTER
I found this on my MSN homepage. It has a recipe section. I think it's a Libby recipe. It caught my attention because, first of all, I love pumpkin. But I had wanted to try to make apple butter, but didn't find any that didn't make a vat of it. I don't want to make that much, afraid it might be too much for us to eat. Hope you enjoy this. It's really easy and quite tasty.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples and pumpkin: Use a variety of apples for a complex flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are good choices. For the pumpkin, use a sugar pumpkin or a pie pumpkin. These pumpkins have a higher sugar content, which will help the apple butter thicken.
- Peel and core the apples: This will help the apple butter have a smooth texture. You can use a vegetable peeler or a paring knife to peel the apples. To core the apples, use an apple corer or a sharp knife to remove the core.
- Cook the apples and pumpkin slowly: This will help the flavors to develop and the apple butter to thicken. Cook the apples and pumpkin over low heat for at least 1 hour, or until the apples are very soft.
- Add spices and sugar to taste: The amount of spices and sugar you add will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. Common spices used in apple butter include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- Can the apple butter: Apple butter can be canned for long-term storage. To can the apple butter, follow the instructions in the recipe. Canned apple butter can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to a year.
Conclusion:
Apple butter is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It can be spread on toast, used as a filling for pies and pastries, or added to yogurt or oatmeal. Apple butter is also a great way to use up leftover apples and pumpkins. With a little time and effort, you can make your own delicious apple butter at home. So next time you have a few extra apples and pumpkins on hand, give this recipe a try.
