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!

Apple & Apricot Kugel for Passover
With Passover fast approaching, we thought we should ask our friend Norene Gilletz of Gourmania.com for some traditional recipes. She suggested this apple Kugel and I’m glad to report that it’s simply delicious. 
Ingredients
6 eggs, beaten
1/2 c sugar
6 apples, peeled and grated
1/4 cup matzo meal
juice of 1 lemon
1 c dried apricots, cut up
2 tbsp sugar mixed with 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Preparation Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs with sugar, mix well. Add apples, matzo meal and lemon juice. Mix until smooth. Soak apricots in hot water for 5 minutes, then drain.
Spray a 7×11 pyrex casserole dish (Virginie’s note: I used individual ramekins, baked them for 45 minutes) with non-stick spray. Spread half of the mixture on the pan. Add the apricots in a single layer over the batter. Top with remaining apple mixture. Spread evenly. Sprinkle cinnamon with sugar mixture. Bake for about an hour, until golden.
This recipe comes from Healthy Helpings by Norene Gilletz (formerly published as MealLeaniYumm!)
Note
. If you are not making this for passover, or are not jewish and can mix dairy with your meal, try it with a vanilla custard sauce. It’s divine!
