Apple Butter

I use this apple butter to add to my pork loin sauce.  But it can also be added to BBQ sauce for ribs, or as a coating for chicken.  It can be added to a crock pot of mulled wine.  Anywhere you could use applesauce or want to add a bit of sweet buttery apple flavouring to your recipes.

The recipe below makes enough to fill a medium sized mason jar, but can easily be doubled if you wanted to keep more on hand.
