Easy Crock Pot Apple Butter

This is the first recipe I ever used to can apple butter. Recipe starts out with applesauce, great for any time of year. It was my first time canning and it turned out great! This would make great Christmas gifts. I gave a lot of mine away earlier this year and everybody loved it. Their only complaint: put it into bigger jars! This recipe make a dark, spicy, and sweet apple butter. Makes a great sandwich with PB. Note: 3 quarts is equal to 12 cups or 96 ounces applesauce.

- 3 quarts unsweetened applesauce
- 4 cups white sugar
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 1/3 cup apple cider or apple juice or water
- 3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cloves

If you're not into canning, this would probably freeze very well.

Very easy and tastes great! My only problem was keeping people from eating it out of the crockpot while it was cooking. Made the house smell great! We've had it on toast so far and it's wonderful.

Yes, this was easy to make but in my opinion, it is waaaay too sweet! Next time I will cut the sugar. This time I added some lemon juice drops AND some apple cider vinegar to cut the sweetness
