Ingredients:

Serving

4 1/2 lbs apples ( tart, cooking, cored and quartered , about 14 medium)
3 cups apple cider
2 cups granulated sugar
2 tbsp lemon juice, strained
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions:

In an 8- to 10-quart heavy pot combine apples and cider.
Bring to boiling and reduce heat.
Simmer, covered, for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Press apple mixture through a food mill or sieve until you have 7 1/2 cups. Return pulp to pot.
Stir in sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
Bring to boiling and reduce heat.
Cook, uncovered, over very low heat for 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours or until very thick and mixture mounds on a spoon, stirring often.
Ladle hot apple butter into hot, sterilized half-pint canning jars, leaving a 1/4 inch headspace.
Wipe jar rims and adjust lids.
Process filled jars in a boiling-water canner for 5 minutes (start timing when water returns to boiling).
Remove jars from canner and cool on wire racks.
Freezer Directions: Place pot of apple butter in a sink filled with ice water. Stir mixture to cool. Ladle into wide-mouth freezer containers, leaving a 1/2 inch head space. Seal and label. Freeze up to 10 months. Apple butter might darken on freezing.
