All-Day Apple Butter Recipe

Ingredients:
5 1/2 lbs. apples, peeled and finely chopped
4 c. sugar
2-3 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. salt

Directions:
Place apples in a 3 quart slow cooker.  Combine sugar, cinnamon, cloves and salt; pour over apples and mix well.  Cover and cook on high for 1 hour.  

Reduce heat to low; cover and cook for 9-11 hours or until thickened and dark brown, stirring occasionally (stir more frequently as it thickens to prevent sticking).

Uncover and cook on low 1 hour longer.  If desired, stir with a wire whisk until smooth.  Spoon into freezer containers, leaving 1/2 inch head space.  Cover and refrigerate or freeze.
