Apple Butter

Aunt Judy shared Grandma's Apple Butter Recipe



Apple Butter

16 cups thick unsweetened apple pulp (cooked and strained like you would make applesauce)
1 cup vinegar
8 cups sugar
4 tsp ground cinnamon

Combine ingredients; cook until mixture remains a smooth mass when a little is cooled (about 1½ hours boiling). Watch and stir frequently to prevent scorching. Pour into clean hot jars and seal.

Note: You can bake this in a large roaster pan rather than boiling it (it’s safer - you don’t get splattered as much). It will take somewhat longer but prevents burning on the bottom. Bake uncovered, stirring occasionally until it reaches the smooth mass” state.”
