If you like the old fashion Apple Butter , you will love Pear Butter. I made this for christmas gifts and it has been a hit. I found a recipe then tweaked it a little. Ingredients:
8 cups pears, peeled and coursely chopped |
1 (12 ounce) can kerrs pear nectar |
1 quart apple juice |
1 cup lighly packed brown sugar |
1 cinnamon stick |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/8 teaspoon allspice |
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves |
1 star anise |
Directions:
1. Combine the pears with apple juice and pear nectar in a large pot and cook for about an hour. Put the pears through a food mill or a large hole strainer,.
2. Put your smoothed pears with apple juice mixture and the remaining ingredients in a large crock pot. Cook for 2 to 3 hours, stir every 20 minutes and make sure that it doesn't scorch, until it reduces to a nice thick consistancy Can it or store in the refridgerator.
3. This is great spread on a english muffin.
