5 pounds apples (about 10 large)
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Peel, core, and dice apples. Place in a crock pot and add sugar and cinnamon. Stir a bit. Cover and cook over low heat for 10 hours. Remove lid and cook another 2 hours. At this point, you could be finished and put the apple butter in jars. I like it to have a smooth consistency, so I put it in the blender first and then put it in jars. Allow it to cool and then refrigerate or freeze.
This is great on toast. You can use it in the fruit salsa recipe I posted a few weeks ago. My favorite way to use it is as a dipping sauce for ham.
