Homemade Crockpot Apple Butter

Step 1

Peel, core and chop apples. Add all ingredients to slow cooker and stir until well mixed.

Step 2

Cover and cook on low setting 6-8 hours or until the butter is thickened and broken down.  Overnight works well for this too.

Step 3

Transfer to a food processor to purée.

Step 4

If apple butter is too thin, transfer back to crockpot, remove lid and cook on low until thickened. Stir often as apple butter thickens to prevent scorching.

Step 5

Cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.  Apple butter can be frozen as well.
