Stovetop Apple Butter

APPLE BUTTER

Ingredients

  • 8 Cups of apple pulp
  • ½ Cup Vinegar I used apple cider
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon powder
  • 4 Cups sugar

Instructions

  1. Wash those apples well and cut them up – I core and slice them using one of those kitchen gadgets.
  2. Throw in all the apples – even the core and leave the peels on and cover the bottom of pan with water.
  3. Simmer until the fruit is soft and mushy then push through a sieve or use a food mill or Chinois – that will take care of the peels, stems and seeds.
  4. You will need 8 cups of pulp in a sauce pan and add all the rest of the ingredients.
  5. Bring to a boil stirring constantly and then turn down to a low simmer. It should not be watery at all – that should have cooked out and it will be a smooth and thick.
  6. Ladle into jars (I got 6 half pints) and then place in a water bath for 10 minutes.
  7. Set the hot jars in a draft free place for 24 hours making sure the flat lids are sealed.
