Apple And Cranberry Butter Recipe

1. 1

   I use my large CROCKPOT.

2. 2

   Combine all ingredients and cook in high stirring occasionally for the first hour or possibly so; covered.

3. 3

   Then remove cover and turn down to low and stir occasionally.

4. 4

   This is a slow process since you have NOT precooked the apples.

5. 5

   Will take 36 or possibly MORE hrs.

6. 6

   You may have to use MORE or possibly LESS of the juices depending on the tartness (or possibly sweetness) of the fruit.

7. 7

   You can cook during the night but I usually don't.

8. 8

   I usually put the entire inset in the fridge.

9. 9

   CANNING: You can process this in a water bath but I usually just keep it in the fridge; it never lasts which long.

10. 10

    NOTE: It is the evaporation of the liquid which thickens and sweetens this 'butter'.

11. 11

    After initial cooking with lid; REMOVE lid of the crockpot during the cooking and keep it on LOW!

12. 12

    Stir to break up the skin.

13. 13

    You may have to use a hand held blender to get it smooth..or possibly ZAP in the Food Processor.
