Directions

1Dice a bunch of apples; the video uses about 10-12 small Granny Smith apples to fill a small crockpot.
2Add white sugar to the apples in the crockpot.
3Add brown sugar to the apples.
4Add cinnamon to the apples.
5Add nutmeg to the apples.
6Add apple pie spice (as a substitute for allspice) to the apples.
7Add ground cloves to the apples.
8Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly with a wooden spoon, ensuring no pockets of sugar or spices remain.
9Plug in the crockpot and set it to high for 6 hours; the video mentions leaving it for about 4 hours.
10Blend the cooked apple mixture using an immersion blender until it reaches the desired consistency; a normal blender can also be used.
11Preheat jars in the oven before filling them with the hot apple butter.
12Fill the hot jars with apple butter, leaving a 1/4 inch headspace.
13Wipe the edges of the jars with white vinegar to ensure a clean sealing surface.
14Place the lids and rings on the jars, ensuring the rings are tight enough to prevent movement but not overtightened.
15Place the filled jars into an electric canner (or a canning pot if preferred).
16Add enough water to cover the jars entirely, about 2 inches above the jars.
17Add a splash of vinegar to the canning water to prevent the jars from becoming cloudy.
18Close the lid of the electric canner, select the appropriate setting (for 10 minutes) and start the canning process.
19Let the canned apple butter sit on the counter overnight to properly seal.
