Recipe - Cider Apple Butter

5 pound Apples, cooking type
1 Lemon; juice & grated peel
1 Orange; juice & grated peel
2 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Allspice
One fourth teaspoon Cloves
One fourth teaspoon Nutmeg
1 One half cup Apple cider
3 cup Brown sugar

Core and quarter apples, but do not peel. Place in crockpot with apple
cider. Cook on high until very soft, about 1 One half hours. Put cooked apples
in blender or food processor, and puree. Measure, (there should be about 6
cups). For every cup fruit pulp, allow One half cup brown sugar. Return to crock
pot. Stir in lemon and orange peel and juice, cinnamon, allspice, cloves
and nutmeg. Cover. Cook on high until thick and dark, about 4 hours. At
this point you can put it into hot sterilzed glasses and seal, freeze it it
batches or refrigerate and use within a couple of weeks. We usually
refrigerate since it goes quick around here.
