Como fazer Caramel Apple Butter
- Peel, core, and chop 6 pounds of apples (about 12 medium).
- In a large pot, combine the chopped apples with 1 cup of water or apple juice.
- Cook over medium-high heat until apples are tender, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the cooked apples with a slotted spoon and puree using a food mill, food processor, or immersion blender until smooth.
- Return the apple puree to the pot.
- Add 4 cups of granulated sugar, stirring well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, for 1-1.5 hours, or until the butter has thickened and reaches a spreadable consistency. A wooden spoon should leave a clear trail.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Add 1 (14-ounce) package of caramels, unwrapped.
- Increase heat to medium-low and stir constantly until the caramels are completely melted and incorporated into the butter.
- Ladle the hot caramel apple butter into clean, sterilized half-pint or pint jars, leaving ½ inch of headspace.
- Seal the jars tightly.
- Process in a boiling water bath canner for 10 minutes for pints, or 5 minutes for half-pints.
- To test for doneness, place a spoonful of butter on a chilled saucer. If no liquid forms around the edges after it cools, your butter is ready. If it's still too liquid, continue simmering and retesting.
