For every 6 lbs of apples you will need
2 Tablespoons salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp. cloves
1/2 tsp allspice
First I cut the apples into quarters put in a large pan and cover with water.
Cook until soft.
Using a slotted spoon I take the cooked apple out of the pan and put into a bowl. There will be some liquid in with them that is alright.
Put through a food mill or strainer
this is what it will look like.
when done you will have a pan of applesauce.
Add sugar and spices mix well. If it is to thick add back a little of the strained liquid that you cooked them in.
I cooked mine a little longer then I needed to but this is about how thick you want it to be.
Pour hot butter into pint jars and water bath for 10 minutes adjust this to your altitude I have to do mine for 25 minutes.
Take out of canner and let cool.
Yummy!!!!!! I've been waiting on this! I can't wait to try it!
