NO PEEL INSTANT POT APPLE BUTTER
This easy NO SUGAR recipe says fall to me and provides you with a delicious alternative to a store-bought product……..and makes your house smell amazing!
Ingredients
- Apples about 4 lbs. I used 15 small gala apples but feel free to use any type you like or even a combination
- 1/2 cup water
- Juice of one lemon
- One TBSP Vanilla Extract 1 point
- One TBSP Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp. Allspice
- 1/8 tsp. Nutmeg
- You can even add some pumpkin pie spice too.
Instructions
- Wash and slice apples. I used an apple slicer for ease. make sure you slice and core the apples so there are no seeds! DO NOT PEEL…. YAY!!!
- Add all of the ingredients to the Instant Pot (mine is 6 qt)
- Place the lid on and set vent to sealing.
- Pressure cook for 15 minutes
- Quick release when done
- Remove lid and use an immersion blender to purée the apple spice mix.
- Blend until it is smooth and has no lumps
- Press the SAUTÉ button and cover with glass lid.
- Stir frequently until it thickens which can be anywhere from 10 – 30 minutes. *** Be careful when stirring as the mixture splashes up and can burn you….a lesson I have learned.
- Keep boiling until desired thickness achieved. It will thicken as it cools too.
- Let cool once desired consistency reached.
- Transfer to jars.
