Make the most of apple season by making your own homemade Apple Butter! This spreadable apple-infused jam is so easy to make and is the perfect condiment to celebrate fall. Try it on toast, english muffins, pancakes, or scones!
Core the apples to remove seeds, peel the skins, and roughly chop into 1 pieces.
Add the chopped apples, apple juice or cider, sugar, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, ground cinnamon, and salt to a high powered blender (such as a Vitamix) or food processor. Blend until completely smooth.
Transfer the puree to a large pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the apples have cooked down and reduced--45 minutes to an hour. When it is done, it will be able to hold firm lines when you run a whisk or spoon through it.
Use warm right away, or transfer the apple butter to a half-pint Mason jar and refrigerate for up to two weeks.
