Three hours later I had the best applesauce ever.
Five hours later I had runny apple butter.
At that point, I transferred it to the stove to boil off some of the liquid for an hour.
I processed in a hot water bath for ten minutes and have the equivalent of four pints of apple butter.
Really incredible stuff.
Today, I filled half the crock pot with apples with the same basic honey/spice recipe to get some more apple goodness.
Some spiced apples. Maybe applesauce. If some remain, apple butter.
Yield: 2 pints spiced apples and turkey sausage with apples in the crockpot for dinner.
