📝 Preparation Steps
1
Wash and peel the apples using a vegetable peeler or a sharp paring knife. Core the apples, then cut them lengthwise into quarters (about 12 cups total).
2
Spray a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Spoon apple quarters and remaining ingredients into slow cooker and mix to thoroughly coat.
3
Cover and cook on the Low heat setting for 8 to ⏱️ 10 hours, or until the apples are very tender. To check tenderness, pierce the apples with the tip of a knife—if it slides easily through the apple quarters, they’re ready.
4
Once the apples are tender, use a potato masher or a large fork to mash them until smooth.
5
Cook uncovered on Low heat setting 1 to ⏱️ 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until mixture is very thick. Cool about ⏱️ 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
6
Spoon apple butter into glass or plastic containers. Cover and store in refrigerator up to 3 weeks.
