My 9-year-old son said 'Mom, you have to share this with America!' It's a huge hit at our house and easy to make.
Ingredients:
5 1/2 pounds mcintosh apples - peeled, cored, and chopped
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (optional)
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Directions:
1. Blend apples in batches in a blender until no large chunks remain.
2. Combine blended apples, white sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger in a slow cooker.
3. Cook uncovered on High for 1 hour. Place cover on slow cooker and continue cooking, stirring about twice per hour, until smooth, 6 to 8 hours. Remove the cover and continue cooking and stirring until thick and spreadable, 2 to 4 hours.
4. Spoon into jars leaving about an inch of space at the top; seal and freeze.
