  Diana's Apple Butter

Ingredients:
1 cup Filtered apple juice
1 cup Dried apples (organic pref.)
8 lb Firm cooking apples *
1 cup Water
1 tbsp Grated lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp Light brown sugar
2 tsp Ground cinnamon
1 tsp Ground ginger
1/2 tsp Ground cloves
1/2 tsp Ground allspice
Instructions:
* Suggested apples: Rome, Winesap, or Cortland.
Bring the apple juice to a boil. Place the apples in a glass or
ceramic bowl and pour the hot apple juice over them. Let them sit
until plump, about one hour. Peel, core, and chop fresh apples. Place
them along with the plumped dried apples and juice in a large kettle
or Dutch oven. Add approximately 1 cup of water or enough to come
about 1 inch up the side of the pan. Bring the water to a gentle
boil, cover, and reduce the heat. Simmer until the apples are soft,
about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Check the water level often,
adding more as needed, a tablespoon at a time, to prevent burning.
Transfer the apples to a food processor or blender, and puree, taking
care not to liquefy. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and stir in the
lemon zest, lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and
allspice. Cook over low heat, stirring often, until the mixture
thickens and reduces by about a third, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove
from the heat and let cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 8
hours before serving, allowing time for the flavors to meld. Store in
the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Makes about 4 cups. Source:
