Homemade apple butter is the perfect hostess gift! Plus, it’s super easy because it’s made in your slowcooker!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup apple cider
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 12 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced into chunks (about 21/2 pounds)
  • Optional equipment: countertop apple peeler
  • Quattro Stagioni Canning Jars

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 10 hours or until apples are tender and falling apart.
  2. Blend apples until smooth in a blender or with an immersion blender. Return to slow cooker and cook on high for 1-2 hours, until thick. Stir occasionally.
  3. Canning instructions (optional): Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Pour apple butter into sterilized jars, making sure to wipe away any splatters from the jar rims. Leave 1/4″ of head space. Seal and boil for 15 minutes. If not canned, apple butter lasts about 1 week in the fridge.
