Equipment

  • slow cooker

Ingredients

  • 3 lb pears (1300 grams)
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp nutmeg powder
  • 1 tsp ginger powder

Instructions

  • Place chopped apples in the base of a slow cooker. Stir in the spices.
  • Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or on low for 8-10 hours. You may want to stir it partway through (only once).
  • After cooking through, blend it until smooth using an immersion blender. Alternatively, you can work in batches and carefully puree the apple butter in a stand blender.
  • Storage- keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. You may freeze for up to 6 months; make sure to leave lids ajar and to leave space for expansion if you are freezing right in the jars.
