Ingredients

  • 3 poundsapples (peeled and cored)
  • 1/2 cupbrown sugar
  • 1 teaspooncinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoonnutmeg

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Apples: Start by washing, peeling, and coring your apples. Cut them into quarters or chunks for easier cooking.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the prepared apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir until the apples are evenly coated with the sugar and spices.

  3. 3

    Transfer to the Slow Cooker: Pour the apple mixture into your slow cooker, spreading it out evenly.

  4. 4

    Cook: Cover the slow cooker and set it to low heat. Allow the apples to cook until they are nice and tender, which will take about 6-10 hours. If you're short on time, you can set it to high heat for 2-3 hours.

  5. 5

    Blend: Once the apples are tender, use a blender or food processor to puree the mixture until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend it to your liking.

  6. 6

    Final Cooking: Return the pureed apple butter to the slow cooker and cook uncovered on high for an additional 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
