Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Apples

    Core, peel, and chop the apples into small pieces. You should have about 6 cups of chopped apples.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large saucepan, combine the chopped apples, aceto balsamico di Modena, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and lemon juice.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Mixture

    Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir occasionally to ensure the sugar dissolves and the apples start to break down.

  2. 4

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan. Let the mixture simmer for about 1 to 2 hours, stirring every 15 to 20 minutes until the apples are completely soft and the mixture has thickened to a spreadable consistency.

Finalizing

  1. 5

    Blend (Optional)

    If you prefer a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to blend the apple butter until you reach your desired consistency.

  2. 6

    Cool and Store

    Remove the saucepan from heat and let the apple butter cool completely. Transfer to sterilized jars and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
