Simple Slow Cooker Apple Butter
The smell of apple butter cooking in the crock pot all day will have you apple picking every weekend this fall. The simple warmth of cinnamon, vanilla, and brown sugar beg for toast on Sunday mornings.

5
pounds
apples
peeled, cored, and cut into 1⁄2-inch thick slices
1
tablespoon
vanilla extract
3
teaspoons
ground cinnamon
½
teaspoon
table salt
½
cup
packed dark brown sugar
Instructions
Place the apple slices into the slow cooker.
In a small bowl, mix the vanilla extract, cinnamon, brown sugar and salt together;
Stir the spice mixture into the apples gently but thoroughly. Cover the crock, but vent the lid using a chopstick or the handle of a wooden spoon.
Cook on low 7 to 8 hours, stirring once or twice if you are home. You want the apples to break down and thicken.
Notes
* I used Granny Smith. I think any cooking apple (or a variety of several) would be wonderful.
