Apple Butter
5 ½ pounds of apples (Gayla or another soft apple)
1 cup light brown sugar
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon nutmeg or cloves (I used nutmeg in the video)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Thoroughly wash apples and remove stems. Using an apple slicer, core apples and slice each apple section into 1/4 inch pieces. Do not peel the apples. In a separate bowl mix together brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract. Place apples into your CrockPot and sprinkle sugar mixture over top of the apples covering completely. Cook for 10 hours on LOW. After 10 hours, remove the lid, puree (using an immersion blender) to a smooth consistency. Cook for an additional 1 hour with the lid and then 1- 1 ½ hours without the lid. Stir approximately every 15 minutes to prevent sticking. Exact time will depend on your preferred consistency.
To test Apple Butter consistency, scoop a teaspoon full of apple butter, move the spoon away from the heat, and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes. The Apple Butter should remain on the spoon in the original shape and should not be watery or drip off. When the spoon is inverted, the apple butter should fall in one or two solid large lumps.
Be patient! The cooking process will vary depending on the apples and their water content. Enjoy with toast, over pancakes, biscuits, ice cream, or even pork chops.
