All Day Apple Butter!

I was looking for an easy recipe to make apple butter and found this on Allrecipes.com.

I did cut back on the sugar than what the original recipe called for and could possibly cut it back more if your apples are sweet.

I will be buying more apples to make more apple butter! It was so easy and the results are delicious! :)

5 1/2 pounds apple; peeled, cored, and diced

3 cups sugar (the original recipe called for 4 cups, and the next time I make it I might cut back to 2 cups)

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1/4 teaspoon salt

Place apples in slow cooker. Combine the sugar, spices & salt; pour over apples and mix well.

Cover and cook on high for 1 hour.

Reduce heat to low; cover and cook for 9-11 hours or until thickened and dark brown. Stirring occasionally.

Uncover and cook on low 1 hour longer.

Stir with wire whisk until smooth.

Spoon into freezer containers leaving 1/2 inch head space and let cool.

Put lids on containers and freeze or refrigerate.
