Receta Slow Cooker Apple Butter
Typically this is made with lots of sugar and commercial brands may contain high fructose corn syrup. I use agave nectar because we know for sure it's vegan, and it's a low GI food, so if your diabetic or have diabetics in your social circle,then this can be a nice sweet treat for you/them. Apples have a lot of natural sugars so go easy on the intake!
Ingredientes
- 12 cooking apples, peeled, cored & sliced (about 14 cups)
- 1 1/2 cups agave nectar
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves

- Place apple slices into a 5-or-6 quart slow cooker. Stir in all other ingredients. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours. Uncover, stir & continue cooking for 2-2 1/2 hours more or until apples are very tender and most the liquid has evaporated. Cool mixture at least 1 hour, or cover and refrigerate overnight.Process with an immersion blender or food processor. Ladle apple butter into 1/2 pint freezer containers, leaving 1/2 inch head space.
