| Comments: Who can resist homemade apple butter on hot rolls, toast or biscuits? A nice change of pace from jams, or preserves and a great way to use up some of your yield of autumn apples. |
Ingredients:  2 pounds apples, peeled, cored, quartered 1 1/2 cups apple cider 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice 1 tablespoon lemon juice |
| Instructions: Place apples and cider in large stock pot or dutch oven. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes. Stir in sugars, apple pie spice and lemon juice. Simmer an additional hour, until very thick. Makes 2 cups. Notes: If freezing, pour hot apple butter into freezer containers, leaving 1/2-inch head space. Cover and freeze. Apple butter should be of smooth consistency for easy spreading. If apple butter is lumpy, beat with a hand mixer to reach desired consistency. |
