Simple Apple Butter

Simple Apple Butter

Ingredients:
applesauce, canned, unsweetened, without added ascorbic acid (includes usda commodity)
sugars, granulated
spices, cinnamon, ground
spices, cloves, ground
spices, nutmeg, ground
spices, ginger, ground
lemon juice, raw

Directions:
Combine ingredients in a heavy skillet.
Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until it will not run together when a spoon is drawn through.
Please note, use a skillet, not a pot, you need the larger surface area to help with the evaporation and reduction process.
Also be sure to stir constantly because it will scorch if you don't.
I spoon it into clean, dry freezer jam jars, leaving headspace and then freeze.
Thaw in fridge to use.
This can be easily doubled.
