|

Cook concentrate or juice with spices and salt until there is about 3/4 cup of liquid left in the pan. Add applesauce and cook slowly, stirring often. From time to time, put a teaspoon of the mixture on a cold saucer. The apple butter is done when no liquid runs from it. It won't take long because the cooking down is done before the applesauce is added. |
