Apple butter is a versatile preparation that can be used to accompany desserts, bread, pancakes, waffles, muffins, cakes, spoon desserts, and even meats. It can also replace part of the butter and sugar in recipes to make desserts lighter.
Place the peeled and diced apples, lemon juice, water, and spices in a saucepan.
Cook over very low heat for about 1 hour, stirring often.
The apples should completely break down and have an amber color.
Remove the spices and blend everything with an immersion blender.
Transfer the apple butter into a sterilized glass jar.
Store in the fridge for up to a month or freeze for longer storage.
