This apple butter is super easy to make and really, really delicious! I've never made apple butter before, but wanted to make a batch for gifts. I can't believe how good this turned out on my very first try. I decreased the sugar to 1 cup. In my opinion, 2 cups of sugar would make it too sweet. I loved that this recipe uses cider - what a perfect addition. That was the selling point for me - none of the other apple butter recipes use cider. I pureed the mixture right inside the crock pot using my electric soup puree stick - worked great and I didn't have to take the mixture out of the crock pot. I used a combination of cooking apples, mostly fuji for the sweetness. Thanks Bev for posting! I will use this recipe year after year - making another batch right now!

    YUM! This is great apple butter! The consistancy is perfect, the color is beautiful and the flavour is delicious! I decreased the sugar by 1/2 cup and used apple juice instead of cider. We had lots of goodland apples from our tree so actually made two batches. Thanks for a keeper Bev!

    I made this and loved it. I used Ida Red apples. Instead of using sugar, I waited until the mixture had cooled and added 16 packages of Equal. It is delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
