Here you go Angie!! This is a yummy one :)
8 medium apples, peeled, cored, sliced
4 cups sugar
4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. cloves
1/4 tsp. salt
Put prepared apples in a crockpot. Add sugar and spices (I use 1 cup less sugar).
Cook in crockpot on high for 2 hours. Then turn on low for another 2 hours. Transfer to blender and mix to desired consistency. Return to crockpot and cook on low without the lid until it thickens. Then I can it so I don't have to refrigerate it!
I must add that I couldn't have made all that apple butter without my wonderful, generous mother in law giving me so many apples. Thanks Mom!!
--If you have a large crockpot, you can easily double the recipe too :)

mmm yum! I can see how this makes your house smell good! Do you thing you could freeze it instead of canning it? I will have to get over my fear of canning :)
Oh great! More things to do with all those apples :) yum! Thanks for posting that, Erica!
That apple butter sure looks wonderful! I'm going to try my first ever canning tomorrow (I think!) and do some tomato sauce and maybe diced tomatos (just a few from the garden!) If it goes well and I have jars left, I'll have to give the apple butter a go :)
