Zubereitung von Pear Apple Butter
- Combine pears, apples, and water in a heavy 3-quart saucepan.
- Bring to a simmer over medium heat, cover, and cook for 20 minutes, or until the fruit is very tender, stirring occasionally.
- Drain any excess liquid from the fruit.
- Transfer the cooked fruit to a food processor or blender. Process in batches until completely smooth.
- Return the puree to the saucepan.
- Stir in lemon juice, sugar, apple cider, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover the pot, leaving the lid slightly ajar, and simmer for approximately 1 hour, or until the mixture has thickened considerably and is shiny, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
- Check consistency. If it's too thin, continue simmering uncovered for another 15-20 minutes.
- Ladle the hot pear apple butter into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
- Wipe jar rims clean, seal with lids and rings, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (for shelf-stable storage) or allow to cool completely before refrigerating.
- Once cooled completely (if not water bath processed), refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
