I had a fun photo shoot with my sister Gillian. I thought I got a few pretty ones, so I wanted to share them. Gillian is very patient with my experiments.  :)

Apple Butter

             

Apple Butter Recipe


15      apples
1/4     cup honey
3        Tablespoons cinnamon
1/2     teaspoon cloves
1/2     teaspoon nutmeg

1.     Peel, core, and cube the apples.

2.     Dump into a crock-pot and add other ingredients.

3.     Set crock-pot on low and leave for about 8 hrs. When the apples are soft, mash them up for a       couple hours more of cooking.

4.     After about 8 hrs., or when the apples are really soft, puree with a stick blender or a food processor until smooth.

5.     Put in jars and refrigerate. Slather on yummy foods, such as Pumpkin Muffins or Pancakes!

Recipe Notes:

~ I did half the honey suggested, and it was fine. Taste it to see what you think. Our apples were pretty sweet.
~ I have to say something about the jars I put the apple butter in! I found them at a little farm shop in Michigan. They are antique jelly jars. So in love with them.

Sunlight

This is a photo I took a while ago, trying to catch the light shining in my bedroom window.  I have to enjoy the sunlight before winter darkness descends!

We went apple picking yesterday, and came home with two bushels. I made an apple crisp last night that was delicious. I'm hoping to make apple butter soon. Any recipe ideas or tips?

Look out for a new apple butter recipe soon, once I've figured it out! :)
