Subj : Apple Time - 13 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Thu Nov 10 2022 16:57:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Apple Butter w/Cinnamon & Cloves Categories: Fruits, Herbs, Preserving Yield: 6 servings 4 lb Stayman apples; peeled, - cored, quartered 3 lb Golden Delicious apples; - peeled, cored, quartered 1 tb Granulated sugar; to taste 1 ts Ground cinnamon 1/4 ts Ground cloves 1/2 ts Kosher salt In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, add the apples; cook, stirring occasionally, until very soft, about 90 minutes. Transfer the fruit and some of the cooking liquid to a food processor, and process into a coarse sauce. Add the sauce back to the pot and cook, stirring often to prevent scorching, over medium-high heat, about 1 hour. Lower the heat and continue cooking and stirring until the mixture is very thick and dark chestnut in color, about 2 ½ hours. Stir in the sugar, or more or less to taste depending on the sweetness of the fruit (late-harvest apples tend to be sweeter). Stir in the spices and salt. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Remove the pot from the heat and spoon the apple butter into clean, sterile pint jars. Cover tightly with a lid and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
