Crock Pot Apple Butter Recipe

If you can make applesauce, you can make apple butter.  The process is exactly the same with the exception of one step.  After you turn your apples into applesauce, instead of canning it right away, you place the applesauce in a crock pot to cook down into a thick, rich buttery spread.

Apple butter is great to spread on toast, but my favorite thing to do with apple butter is to place a whole chicken in a crock pot and pour a bottle of apple butter over it and let the chicken cook on low all day long.  The spiced apple butter makes the chicken sooo incredibly juicy and is the perfect way to enjoy chicken in the fall and winter months.

Try it, I’m sure you’ll love it as much as my family does.
