Crock Pot Apple Butter

Recipe type: Crockpot
Ingredients
  • 12 -15 cups apples
  • 5 cups sugar
  • 5 tbsp. cinnamon
  • 1½ tsp ground cloves
  • ¼ tsp. salt
Instructions
  1. Peel, core and cut apples into small-medium chucks and put in a big bowl of cold water with a little salt sprinkled in it. This helps to preserve them from turning brown until ready to put into your crock pot and get the rest of your sugar and spices together.
  2. Once you’re done cutting up apples than mix up sugar, cinnamon, ground cloves and salt. Drain water off of apples. Then mix about ¾ of the sugar mixture with your apples. Fill your crock pot full to the top with the apples. Sprinkle rest of sugar mixture on top. Using a 4-5 quart size crock pot works well.
  3. Cover. Cook on high 8 hours. Take cover off and cook 2 hours more. Stir occasionally until thick. This will be a bit coarser than regular smooth apple butter but oh so good!
  4. Cool. Keep some out to use right away and put the rest into small freezer containers for later.
