Ingredients:


3 quarts unsweetened applesauce

2 pounds granulated sugar

1 pound brown sugar

3/4 cup apple cider

-----spices-----

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon allspice

3/4 teaspoon cloves

3 teaspoons cinnamon
 

Preparation / Directions:


The thicker skinned, late Summer and Fall apples produce a grainier texture that's best for applesauce. Stir applesauce, sugars, and cider together and cook in a slow oven (325F.) for 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Add spices. Return to oven and cook 1 hour more. Apple butter requires long, slow cooking. (Can also be made in a crockpot.
