Ingredients

5 1/2 lbs Apples, peeled and finely chopped (as many different kinds as you can!)

4 Cups Sugar

2-3 tsp Cinnamon

1/4 tsp Ground Cloves

1/4 tsp Salt

1 Sprinkle Nutmeg

Directions

Peel and core the apples. Slice finely or puree in a food processor. Add apples and remaining ingredients to your crock pot.

Cook on high for 1 hour, then on low for 8-10 hours. Remove lid (or crack it open a bit) and cook on high until a wooden spoon stands upright in it. The apple butter will have reduced by about half to get to this point. Blend if desired.

Fill sterilized jars with simmering apple butter and process for 15 minutes in a boiling-water bath.

Remove jars and let sit, undisturbed, overnight. Test the seals and refrigerate any jars that have not sealed completely. Fully sealed jars will keep for 18-24 months unopened. Once opened, the apple butter will keep for 2 months in the refrigerator, or indefinitely in the freezer.
