Grandmas Apple Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Place apples in crock pot; cook on high for 4-1/2 hours (covered).
• After 4-1/2 hours stir and add remaining ingredients. Cook for another 4-1/2 hours with NO lid.
• Stir and seal in jars.
• *Can seal in hot water bath or top with paraffin.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Let egg yolks stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Starting 1/2 in. from 1 end, cut apple halves lengthwise into 1/4-in. slices, leaving them attached at the top so they fan out slightly. Set aside., Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. In another bowl, sift flour, cornstarch, cream of tartar, baking powder and salt twice. Gradually beat into creamed mixture. Add milk; mix well (batter will be thick)., Spread batter into a greased 9-in. springform pan wrapped in a sheet of heavy-duty foil. Gently press apples, round side up, into batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs, 45-55 minutes. Cool on a wire rack 10 minutes. Loosen sides from pan with a knife; remove foil. Cool 1 hour longer. Remove rim from pan. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Combine apples, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg for filling in a bowl; transfer to the prepared baking dish.
• Combine brown sugar, flour, oats, butter, and cinnamon for topping in a large bowl. Sprinkle on top of filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and bubbly, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Wash apples thoroughly. Use apple slicer to slice apples. Discard core.
• In large pot, boil apples (with skins on) in water until soft (approx. 15 min.).
• Drain apples. Discard water.
• Run apples through food mill to remove skins and turn apples to pulp.
• In large pot, bring cider to a boil and add apple pulp and brown sugar.
• Lower temp to simmer. Stir frequently in a figure 8 to prevent burning. You will need to check on it often and be prepared -- it takes time for it to reduce.
• When it reduces/thickens, add cinnamon, allspice and cloves.
• Let it thicken to desired spreading consistency.
• Follow canning procedures to jar apple butter. (Note: When jarring, I allow 1" head space to prevent apple butter from darkening at top). I can't remember exactly how many jars it makes, but I think it is around 3-4 quart jars or 7-8 pints.
• Serve on bread, toast, muffins, or on cottage cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap each apple piece in one crescent roll. Place seam side down in an 8x8 baking dish and sprinkle with cinnamon.
• In medium saucepan, combine butter, sugar, and orange juice; bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour over rolls.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until pastry is golden and apples are tender. Spoon sauce over rolls when serving.
