Heart to Hearth Cookery

It's Apple Butter

By 7:30 pm the apple butter was done!  The picture to the left shows me measuring the quantity of apple butter -2.5 gallons!  At the time, it seemed like not a great quantity for all the work and peeling of apples.  I felt differently the next day as I was completing the preservation process.  Then the quantity seemed never ending!  Of course, I sampled it yet again and it even tasted better.  The experience was very rewarding as I now have 26 jars of apple butter to eat.
