Cinnamon Apple Butter


 

 Part Two....

To recap...we received a bag of windfall apples, peeled and cored them, sliced them into the slow cooker and placed the peelings etc in a large pan.

To the apples was added sugar, cinnamon, all spice, cloves, a dash of nutmeg and a small amount of water.





 The apples were set on high in the slow cooker and left to soften down, with the lid on and occasionally stirring them.

When the apples were dropping they were whisked with an electric hand whisk and left on low for a few hours with the lid raised.  







When ready we put the jars through a dishwasher cycle to steralise them.  When they were ready we bottled the Cinnamon Apple butter and we got 4 large jars out of a bag of free windfall apples.  All we paid for was sugar and the spices which were already in the cupboard.....yum!!!!!!!!
