    Caramel Spice Apple Butter


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    4 lbs Rome apples
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    4 1/2 lbs Granny Smith apples
    1/2 teaspoon cloves
    1 cup water
    1/4 teaspoon ginger
    4 cups sugar
    2 tablespoons lemon juice

    Recipe



    1. Wash apples and cut into pieces; combine with water in a large covered sauce pot. Cook until soft, about 30 minutes.

    2. Press apples through a food mill; measure 12 cups apple pulp, and return to sauce pot.

    3. Heat 2 cups sugar in a saucepan, stirring until sugar melts and turns a rich golden brown. Carefully pour into apple pulp. Sugar will crackle and harden.

    4. Add remaining 2 cups of sugar and spices. Cook, uncovered, about 1 hour or until apple butter thickens, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

    5. Stir in lemon juice.

    6. Pour hot into hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space. Adjust caps.

    7. Process 10 minutes in boiling water bath.
