Apple Butter RecipeOrigin: America Period: Traditional |
|
Apple butter is an American classic, but unless you're familiar with North American cuisine then you may well not have come across this before. It makes a wonderful spread, especially for freshly-baked bread and works well as a dip for fruit and even seafood. Ingredients:
15 or so medium sized tart apples (~1.8kg) eg bramley 
Apple Butter Preparation:Method:Wash the apples then core and quarter them. Place in a large pan along with the cider. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat, cover and allow to simmer for 30 minutes (stir occasionally to prevent sticking). Once done allow the mixture to cool slightly and press through a sieve. Return about 2.5l back to the pot. Add the sugar and spices, bring to a boil then reduce the heat to its lowest setting. Allow to cook, uncovered, for about 1.5 hours or until the mixture is very thick. Ensure you stir frequently to prevent the base of the mixture from burning. Once ready spoon the apple butter into hot, sterilized, jars leaving 5mm head space. Wipe the rims and screw-on the lids. Place in a bath of water just off the boil and leave for 5 minutes. Take out and allow to cool naturally. |
