Small Batch Apple Butter

Ingredients:

3 apples (I used honeycrisp)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cloves
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. Peel and cube three apples.
  2. Add apples, spices, sugars, salt and vinegar to a pot on the stove.
  3. On medium-low heat, let apples simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Once the apples become tender, blend the mixture. I used an immersion blender but a blender or food mill will work too.
  5. Put it in a jar and let it cool before you enjoy it!
