Instructions
Core apples and cut into pieces.
In a 4-quart slow cooker, combine all ingredients; mix well.
Cover and cook on low 10–12 hours, stirring occasionally, until apple butter is thick and deep golden brown.
Remove lid after 8 hours for a thicker apple butter.
As the apple butter cooks, you’ll need to stir more often to prevent burning.
Be sure to thoroughly scrape sides and bottom of slow cooker each time you stir. If desired, use an immersion blender to make apple butter smoother.
Spoon apple butter into 1-cup jars or freezer containers.
