Homemade Apple Butter Recipe (video)

It's apple season! At least here in Ontario it is. Lots of fresh apples all over the markets right now, and they are delicious. Apple butter is a delicious and slightly spicy recipe that is perfect for fall. Amazing flavours and goes extremely well with biscuits and butter, and we discovered that they go very well with peanut butter!

We cooked the apples sous vide, which worked very well. It kept all of those flavours and all the juices from the apples together while they cooked. Opening the bag was amazing! But if you don't have a sous vide machine, you can use a crock pot or a slow cooker, they both work very well. You also don't want to overcook the butter after it is strained, because overcooking it will denature the pectin and make it runny. It's pretty easy to tell by watching the texture when it's done.

This method worked very well for us, though. Kept all of those aromas nicely sealed into that bag while the apples cooked.
