Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 20 whole Apples Peeled, cored, and sliced into pieces.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup Molasses
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon Allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Method
 

  1. First, peel, core, and slice the apples into pieces. Make sure you get rid of the bad spots if there are any as well.
  2. Put the apples into your Instant Pot, and add in water and molasses. Also add in the sugar, spices, lemon juice, brown sugar, and the vanilla.
  3. Mix this all together and then put your lid on the Instant Pot and seal the valve.
  4. Press "Manual" high pressure and set the timer for 15 minutes. Once this is done, allow for a natural release of the pressure.
  5. You can either mash or puree the mixture, as it depends on the texture you want from the apple butter.
  6. That is all you need to do to make homemade apple butter using the Instant Pot. You can also store the left overs in mason jars.
