Easy Crockpot Recipe for Melt in your mouth Apple Butter

apple butter

I grew up loving Apple Butter on my toast. I had no idea at the time that Apple Butter is not in fact butter. I recently decided to make my childhood favorite topping and was amazing by how easy it is to make. Not only is it seriously super easy to make it is incredibly delicious! I made up a piece of toast and spread my apple butter and nearly melted to the ground as the flavors indulged my senses.

This has to be one of the easiest recipes to make, so delicious and way HEALTHIER than putting actual butter on your toast!

Crockpot Apple Butter
 
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
 
Serves: 1.5 pints
Ingredients
  • 2 lbs apples (I used Granny Smith)
  • ½ cup apple cider vinegar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Pumpkin Pie Spice (or 1 TBSP Cinnamon, ¼ tsp ground cloves and ¼ tsp All Spice)
Instructions
  1. Cut apples into pieces. Leave core and peel in tact. Remove any loose seeds.
  2. Place all ingredients in the crockpot and mix together.
  3. Set crockpot on low for 10 hours. Stir periodically if you can. (It won't hurt it to cook overnight while you are sleeping).
  4. Take mixture out of the crockpot and press it through a fine mesh strainer with a spoon. Discard the part that cannot press through. If you want your apple butter a little thicker you can return it to the crockpot with the lid off for another 2 hours on low. It will continue to thicken and darken in color the longer it cooks.
