In the slow cooker

I have a recipe for no sugar added apple butter. I like apple butter and this is easy peasy. Often the grocer will have marked down bags of produce. I have gotten some really huge apples lately. You do not even peel the apples, just core them, cut off any bad spots. Put them in the slow cooker with 1/4 C water, and 1/4 apple cider vinegar. Add spices to your taste. I do not remember how much I added last time. I will start with 1 Tbsp. pie spice. Since these are some of the sweeter varieties of apples, the apple butter will be just right. When the apples are all mushy I will use my immersion blender and blend them until they are all smooth. I will likely waterbath can some of it to have for later on. My apples fill my 6 quart crock pot and I spent less than $4 for them. The house smells delicious while they are cooking.
