Apple Butter

Well I am still dealing with apples. Feel like they multiple on their own sometimes.

Decided to do some apple butter this weekend.
Here is the recipe for you.

APPLE BUTTER

4 cups apples, peeled, cored and cut into pieces
8 cups water
1 1/2 qt cider
1 1/2 lb sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp allspice
1 tsp ground cloves

Place apples in a large kettle and cover with water.
Bring to a boil and simmer until apples are quite soft.
Chop in food processor.
Bring cider to a boil and add the chopped apple pulp.
Add sugar and cook slowly, uncovered until the mixture is thick and dark on color, stirring
frequently to prevent from sticking.
Add spices and cook 20 minutes longer.
Sppon into hot, sterlized jars and seal in hot water bath for 20 minutes.
Store in a cool, dry place.

Now if you are a diabetic or if you just dont want all the sugar you can use Truvia or Stevia instead.
You cut the amount of sugar in half.

This is good on bagel, toast even ice cream

Happy eating
