Slow Cooker Apple Butter
- 5 lbs mixed apples peeled & cored - my favorites are Granny Smith & Honeycrisp
- 3 cups sugar divided
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp nutmeg
- ½ tsp cloves
Peel, core & cut apples. Place into a crock pot & pour 1 1/2 cups of sugar all over. Cover & cook on High for 5 hours.
Stir in cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves & the remaining 1 1/2 cups of sugar. Turn down the crock pot setting to low, cover & cook for an additional 3-4 hours.
Place half of apple mixture into a blender, secure lid well & remove the center piece on lid to allow steam to escape. Place a clean towel over opening. Pulse until smooth, repeat with remaining apple mixture. Cool completely!
