List of Ingredients




1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger (about a 2-inch piece)
6 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and coarsely chopped
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup bourbon

Optional: 1/4 pound of butter



Recipe



In a saucepan, melt butter and saute ginger for 1 minute. Add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and bourbon. Simmer uncovered until apples are very tender, about 45 minutes.
Puree in a blender until "apple butter" consistency. To kick it up a notch: whisk in 1/4 pound of butter after pureeing applesauce.
