Cooking Recipe Cider Apple Butter

Recipe Ingredients

5 lb Apples, cooking type
1 Lemon; juice & grated peel
1 Orange; juice & grated peel
2 ts Cinnamon
1 ts Allspice
1/4 ts Cloves
1/4 ts Nutmeg
1 1/2 c Apple cider
3 c Brown sugar

Directions

Core and quarter apples, but do not peel. Place in crockpot with
apple cider. Cook on high until very soft, about 1 1/2 hours. Put
cooked apples in blender or food processor, and puree. Measure,
(there should be about 6 cups). For every cup fruit pulp, allow 1/2
cup brown sugar. Return to crock pot. Stir in lemon and orange peel
and juice, cinnamon, allspice, cloves and nutmeg. Cover. Cook on
high until thick and dark, about 4 hours. At this point you can put
it into hot sterilzed glasses and seal, freeze it it batches or
refrigerate and use within a couple of weeks. We usually refrigerate
since it goes quick around here.
