Thread: Apple Butter

I love this recipe. This is perfect for toasts and pancakes. It taste a lot better than store bought jams.

Ingredients

1 (12 fluid ounce) can frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
1/2 cup apple cider
4 pounds Macintosh apples - peeled, cored and chopped
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup apple brandy
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

1. In a large saucepan, bring apple juice concentrate, apple cider, and Macintosh apples to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Stirring occasionally, simmer uncovered about 1 hour, until apples are easily mashed.

2. Mix dark brown sugar, apple brandy, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves into the apple mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer uncovered 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Transfer to sealed sterile containers, and cool at least 1 hour before serving.

I always buy jam in stores so this is great for me. It's all natural, no preservatives or additives of any kinds. Awesome..

Me too.. Ihaven't really made my own jam so this would be the first..I can't wait to make this.

I love jams too.. I always eat toast for breakfast especially if I'm really in a hurry.. When i get the time, I will definitely make this.. How long will it last though?
