OLD FASHION Apple butter
This is the stuff your granny would have had made and canned!
by Tina Johnson
6 lbs. mixed variety apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
1 3/4 cups apple cider
2 cups sugar
2 cups brown sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tablespoon cinnamon
3/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
Place all ingredients in the crock pot and mix well. Cook on the high setting for 2 hours, stirring periodically. Turn the crock to low and cook 7-8 more hours. Puree with an immersion blender if desired for a smoother consistency. At this point you can freeze or give a water bath.
