Crock Pot Apple Butter 3 QT. Recipe
Put 3 quarts of apples, sliced thin, in a crock pot and cook overnight on high.
Next morning, add 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 3 cups sugar.
Cook all day on low.
Tastes like old-fashioned apple butter that is cooked in copper kettle.

You can use applesauce if you do not have time to prepare the apples.
The crock pot makes it possible for apples to cook a long time without being stirred


Crock Pot Apple Butter

5 quarts finely chopped apples
4 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
4 tsp. cinnamon

Fill a 5 quart crock pot heaping full with finely chopped apples. (Tart apples are best.)
Drizzle 4 cups sugar (or less, depending upon sweetness of apples), 4 teaspoons cinnamon,
and 1/4 teaspoon salt, over the apples.
Cover. (Lid may not fit tightly at start, but apples will shrink as cooked.)
Begin cooking on high, then lower heat and cook all day until thick and dark color.
Stir occasionally.
Place in small peanut butter jars, cool and freeze.
