Apple Butter I

Posted By Tessie2.

Ingredients.

apples -- cut up, to fill 3 1/2 qt. crock-pot
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup apple cider
juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon cinnamon



Cut blemishes off apples and cut into chunks to fill 3 1/2 qt. crock-pot. Add sugar, cider and lemon juice. Cover and cook on Low for 8 hours. Stir. Add cinnamon and cook another 10 hours. Stir occasionally until brown. Run through Food mill or any strainer to strain out seeds and skins. I used the blender. To thicken, if not thick enough, return to slow cooker and cook on High uncovered until desired consistency. YIELD: Makes 3-4 pints.
