INGREDIENTS

  • Fruits

    • 🍎 12 apples - peeled, cored, and cut into small cubes

  • Sweeteners

    • 🍬 2 cups brown sugar

  • Spices

    • 🧂 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    • ½ teaspoon ground allspice
    • 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves

STEPS

1

Combine apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice, salt, and cloves in a slow cooker.

2

Cook on High until the apples are tender enough to easily mash with a fork, 4 to 6 hours.

3

Puree apple mixture with an immersion blender until smooth.

4

Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack apple butter into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims of jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.

5

Place a rack in a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Ensure at least 1 inch of water is above the tops of jars. Boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.

6

Remove jars from stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface until cool. Check seals by pressing the top of the lid; they should not move up or down.
