Slow Cooker Apple Butter


Submitted by: Kandi L.
Recipe origin: USA

This recipe comes from “Apple Butter Bonanza,” a cookbook created by Kandi to raise money for her town’s historical society in Front Royal, Virginia. While traditional apple butter uses a 30-gallon copper cauldron and requires hours and hours of stirring, this slow cooker recipe is a much easier alternative.

INGREDIENTS
2-3 quarts unsweetened applesauce
1 cup apple cider (not apple juice)
2-3 cups sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoons ginger
1/2 teaspoon allspice
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Add all ingredients to the crockpot and stir.

Place a tea towel between the lid and the crock. This is to absorb condensation. (Be sure to fold the ends of the tea towel on top of the lid so it doesn’t touch the sides of the slow cooker.)

Cook on high for 8-10 hours, removing the lid and tea towel after 2 hours. Then cook without the lid for the remainder of the time. Stir occasionally to make sure it doesn’t burn. Cook longer to make it thicker and darker in color.

Apple butter will be done when it is thick, sticking to a spoon when the spoon is turned upside down, and is dark in color. Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 tbsp vegetable oil
½ cup popcorn kernels
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
