Sara's Super Simple Sugar Free Apple ButterHere is the recipe that I promised. I have a lot of diabetics and people who are on low or no sugar diets that I like to give gifts to during the holidays. So this is one of the favorites around here, even for the sugar eaters. All you need to make it is a 4 quart crock pot, a food processor, and a little time. Sara's Super Simple Sugar Free Apple Butter 9lbs apples 4-5 cinnamon sticks 1. Peel, core, and slice your apples. This can take some time, but let me tell you, with a few tools, you can get it done really fast. This year I found this little gadget. It's made by starfrit. It's an apple peeler...a cousin to the rotato, but made just for peeling apples and it works wonderfully. I got it for less than 10 dollars at walmart. This along with the corer/slicer tool got the job done for me in less than 30 minutes.
2. Fill your crockpot with your apples. ( If you happen to have a smaller crockpot, just fill it up and add only 3-4 cinnamon sticks.) I fill it up until the lid just barely fits on. The apples will cook down a bit. 3. Turn your crockpot on low and cook for 3 hours with the lid on, stirring occasionally. 4. After 3 hours, take the lid off and cook for an additional 8 hours with the lid off, or until the liquid is cooked out, stirring occasionally. The apples will cook down quite a lot and brown. 5. After the apple butter has cooked down and browned, you will need to mash it or run it through a food processor. 6. I was able to fill 6-8oz jars with a little leftover for a snack for the kids. Make sure you boil your jars first then fill them with warm apple butter and process in a water bath for 10 minutes. And that's it! Like I said, it takes some time, but the end result is delicious. If you have any questions, or I left something out, just let me know. Thanks for coming by. Blessings, Sara { Post a Comment } { Last Page } { Page 221 of 462 } { Next Page } |
