Receta My Homemade Apple Butter with Apple Schnapps
Two autumn standards, pumpkin and apple. I joined Schnapps Liquor with apple in this lovely spread. Apple Schnapps really adds a surprising element to this.
This spread is wonderful on toast, pancakes, waffles and in pumpkin pie! I might experiment one of these days and see how it would work in traditional apple pie

- Peel, core and slice apples into water containing 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Until all fruit is prepared. Drain the fruit and cook the apples with 1 cup water, in a heavy, covered saucepan, for 10 - 15 minutes.
- When apples are soft, process until smooth or grind in a food mill. Put puree in a heavy pan and add lemon juice, granulated and brown sugars, liquor, the spices, salt and vanilla. Stir well to blend and heat to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugars.
- Turn heat to low and continue to cook until very thick and spreadable. Stir occasionally so the butter doesn't burn on the bottom or sides.
- To test if butter is done, put a spoonful on a plate and make sure there is no liquid around the edges.
- When done, ladle into hot jars, clean rims, seal and process in water bath canner for 10 minutes.
- Yield: 4 Pints plus 1 Half-Pint
- BEST USE: Apple Schnapps Liquor or McGillicuddy's Apple Pie Schnapps Liquor. These provide the best flavor, personal favorite McGillicuddy's.
- DO NOT USE: Sour Apple Pucker or Sour Apple Schnapps. The sour flavor does not blend well with the spices in my opinion.
