Directions
Core and quarter apples, but do not peel. Place in crockpot with apple cider. Cook on high until very soft, about 1½ hours. Put cooked apples in blender or food processor, and puree. Measure, (there should be about 6 cups). For every cup fruit pulp, allow ½ cup brown sugar. Return to crock pot. Stir in lemon and orange peel and juice, cinnamon, allspice, cloves and nutmeg. Cover. Cook on high until thick and dark, about 4 hours. At this point you can put it into hot sterilzed glasses and seal, freeze it it batches or refrigerate and use within a couple of weeks. We usually refrigerate since it goes quick around here. Hope you like it. Thanks again for all the great recipes.
