I learned to make the easiest apple butter ever. I didn’t even peel my apples, just cored and sectioned them. I was gifted 20 lbs of apples. They went straight into apple butter. 1 lb apples yields about a pint of apple butter. I will use this recipe for pumpkin, peach,pear or whatever produce I come by. Taste as you cook. You may add or decrease sugar or spices to your taste.
5 lbs apples (fills 6 qt crockpot. I heaped them up)
4 cups granulated sugar
3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Core and section apples. Top with sugar and spices. Set crockpot on medium. Cook 12 -18 hours. Blend till smooth with hand mixer. Jar in clean jars with new flats and rings. Cover with water, bring to boil and boil 10 minutes to seal. I did in pressure cooker since I made a lot. Excellent on hot biscuits. This makes an excellent gift!


This is about half my apple butter. The rest is still cooking. The house smells wonderful!
Yummy!!

No, I can eat toast I don’t have a toaster and enjoy other things for breakfast at the moment. I also love peanut butter toast. I’ll eat again when the hankering hits.
