Crockpot Apple Butter
Ingredients
- 8-10 Pounds Apples
- 1 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1 1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 Cup Water
- 1 TBSP Cinnamon
- 3/4 TSP Ground Cloves
- 1 TSP Nutmeg
- 1 TSP Salt
- 1 TSP Vanilla Extract Optional
Instructions
- Pour water into slow cooker.
- Wash, core, and slice apples. I leave the peels on since the apples will cook down so much.
- Add apples to slow cooker. If all apples do not fit, just set aside extra slices and add once the first slices start to cook down, about an hour after cooking.
- In a bowl, combine remaining ingredients, except vanilla, until well mixed.
- Pour sugar mixture over apples and stir.
- Cook on low for 24 hrs, occasionally stirring.
- If using vanilla, add it in about 4 hours before finished cooking.
- Turn off slow cooker and let cool slightly.
- Use an immersion blender to blend to a smooth consistency. Enjoy!
