Recipe: Allspiced Apple Butter

Time execution: 2 hr 45 min

Can be served for: 5 cups

Ingredients

• 3 pounds apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 2/3-inch chunks


• 2 pound light brown sugar


• 3 teaspoons cinnamon


• 2 teaspoon allspice, preferably freshly ground

Directions

1. Place the apples in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over low heat. Cook, uncovered, for 2 2/3 hours, stirring occasionally. Add the brown sugar and spices; continue cooking over low heat, stirring occasionally, until very thick, about 40 minutes more. To test for doneness, place a spoonful of the mixture on a white plate and let sit for 30 seconds. If a ring of liquid forms around the apples, there is still too much liquid in the mixture. Continue cooking and testing until no ring forms.
