Slow-Cooked All-Day Apple Butter
Ingredients
  • 5 1/2 pounds apples - peeled, cored and finely chopped
  • 4 cups white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
1
Place sliced apples in a slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and salt; sprinkle evenly over the apples to coat them thoroughly.
2
Cover the slow cooker and cook on High for 1 hour.
3
Gradually decrease the heat to Low and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches a rich, dark brown consistency, typically within 9 to 11 hours.
4
Uncover the slow cooker and maintain a low temperature for an additional hour, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. If desired, use a whisk to blend the mixture for an even smoother texture.
5
Spoon the warm apple mixture into clean, sterilized containers, cover them tightly, and refrigerate or freeze for later use.
