If you have way too many tart apples sitting around, and need to use them up fast, here is a fun and easy recipe. Spread it on toast, muffins, or warm over ice cream or pound cake. Put into small jars, tie with a ribbon, and give as part of a homemade gift. Keeps up to 2 months in the refridgerator.
About 1/2 peck tart apples (10 to 12 small apples). I used Gala. Cored and dice, but do not peel. Apples should nearly fill the crock, at least 3/4 full.
3/4 cup apple cider
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground clove (you can grind whole clove if necessary with a mortal and pestle or the back of a spoon)
1/4 tsp salt
Coat a medium round slowcooker with nonstick spray. Add all ingredients and toss to coat. Cook on low about 10 hours or overnight. Remove lid and increase heat to high, checking frequently and stirring occasionally, until desired thickness, about 2 to 4 hours. Col to rom temperature, then use a stick (immersion) blender to blend until smooth. Pouror scoop into clean glass jars with tight-fitting lids and keep in fridge up to 2 months.
