Ingredients
- 1/2 Cup Apple Cider
- 1/4 Cup Maple Syrup plus more to taste
- 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt plus more to taste
- 3 Pounds Apples Cored Chopped
Instructions
- Whisk the apple cider, maple syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl.
- Add the apples to a slow cooker then stir in the apple cider mix.
- Cook on high for 4 hours, stirring every hour or so to ensure even cooking.
- Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth then turn the heat down to low and cook for another 6-8 hours or until thickened to your liking, stirring every hour or so to prevent burning. (I like mine thick like jam, so I let mine cook for the full 8 hours, but you can cook it longer if you like.)
- Serve on toasted English muffins or store in an airtight container once cooled completely in the fridge for up to 2 months.
