SLOW COOKER APPLE BUTTER

HOW TO MAKE IT :

Instructions

1. Place the chopped apples into a slow cooker.
2. Add the brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, water, cinnamon, allspice, and salt. Mix well.
3. Cover and cook on low for 12 hours.
4. After 12 hours, uncover and use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth.
5. Optional: Pass the apple butter through a fine wire-mesh strainer to catch any remaining larger pieces. This is an optional step but will ensure a smooth and creamy consistency. Discard any of the thicker pulp.
6. Cover and cook on low for another 8-10 hours. The apple butter is done when it is dark brown, thicker than apple sauce, and sticks to the back of a spoon.
7. Spoon mixture into sealed containers to store in the refrigerator or freezer.
