20 Minute Apple Butter

INSTRUCTIONS

8 cups apples (meas. after cooked/run thru food mill)
7 cups white sugar
1/4 cup vinegar (I use apple cider vinegar)
1/2 cup redhots
1/2 tsp. cinnamon oil OR 1 heaping tsp. ground cinnamon

Peel & core apples, cook until done. Measure ingredients in order in 5 qt. dutch oven type heavy pan. Bring to boil. Stirring constantly, reduce heat til it keeps bubbling rapidly & cook for 20 minutes. If cooked longer, it is hard to spread.

I use golden delicious or grimes golden apples.

Can be canned in jelly jars or pint jars & processed in hot water bath for 10 minutes.

Great with fresh cornbread!
