Ingredients

Small Batch Stovetop Apple Butter

  • 4 apples, cored and chopped (I left the peel on)
  • 1/3 cup apple cider
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • a pinch of cloves
  • a pinch of sea salt

Apple Butter and Maple Cream Vanilla Milkshakes

  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1/3 cup apple butter
  • 1/4 cup maple cream or maple butter, plus more for drizzling
  • 1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped
  • whipped cream for serving
  • cinnamon to sprinkle on top

Instructions 

Small Batch Stovetop Apple Butter

  • Combine all ingredients together in a small saucepan and stir. Heat over low heat and cover, cooking for 1 hour. Stir occasionally, making sure that no apples are sticking to the bottom. After an hour, the apples should be caramely in color and completely broken down. Add the mixture to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. (You can leave it chunky if you’d like!) Store in the fridge for up to one week.
