Homemade Apple Butter

Directions:

Step 01:

• Cut the apples into quarters without peeling or digging them up. There is a lot of pectin in the kernels and flavor in the peels.
• Cut out the damaged parts.

Step 02: Cooking the apple:

• Place apple quarters in a large saucepan, add vinegar and water, cover, and bring to a boil, reduce heat until tender, and cook until apples are tender, about 20 minutes.

Step 03 :

• Remove from heat.
• Push apples into the feed factory
• Put the apple mixture (cooked and liquid apples) in a china sieve (or food mill) and using the pulp with the power of a pestle from the china into a large bowl below.

Step 04:

• Add sugar, spices, lemon zest and juice: measure apple pulps.
• For each cup of apple puree, add half a cup of sugar.
• Stir to dissolve the sugar.
• Add cinnamon, clove powder, allspice powder, lemon zest, lemon juice and magnifier; a pinch of salt.

Step 05:

• Try to adjust the spices as needed.
• Prepare the apple mixture, stirring often: Prepare the uncovered powdered sugar mixture in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring often to avoid burning.

Step 06:

• Clean the bottom of the pot and stir it from time to time to avoid scabs on the bottom.

Step 07:

• Cook until thick, soft and dark brown (about 1-2 hours).
• One teaspoon on a cold dish (in the refrigerator) will thicken and not runny.
• You can also cook the puree over low heat, stirring occasionally. However, this takes longer because the stirring will evaporate.

Step 08:

• Enjoy This Delicious Homemade Apple Butter!
