If you enjoy this tasty twist on jam, but can’t find it available commercially in your area, try making apple butter yourself. It used to be messy and extremely time-consuming to prepare, but if you use a slow cooker it's much easier to make, so you can be eating apple butter in a day!
1. Quarter the apples; peel them first if you prefer them without the skin. Put the chopped apples into the slow cooker, then slowly add the sugar. Stir to coat.
Ingredients
- 4 1/2 lbs. cooking apples, washed and quartered
