Crockpot Apple Butter Recipe
Ingredients
- 6 pounds apples
- 2 Tablespoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups raw or brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 3-4 teaspoons cinnamon
Instructions
- Peel, core, and slice apples in fourths.
- Put them in a large crockpot with vanilla and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Stir every few hours.
- Once apples are very, very tender, mash with a potato masher and stir in sugar and spices.
- Cook on low for another 5-6 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Cool and pour into jars or airtight containers and refrigerate.
Notes
If you’d like it to be thicker, simply let it cook without the lid for another 1-2 hours on low (stirring occasionally) or until it reaches your desired thickness.
You can store apple butter in sealed containers in the refrigerator for up to a month.
You can also freeze jars of apple butter for a year.
Or, you can process the jars in a hot water bath with proper canning lids and rings and store at room temperature almost indefinitely.
