I hope there are alot of Apples this year! 
 We got some apples last year and we made
canned...........Applebutter.
 
 8 lbs of apples
 2 cups cider
 2 cups vinegar
 2-1/4 cups white sugar
 2-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
 1 tbsp ground cloves
 Yield: about 8 to 9
pints
 Procedure: Wash, remove stems,
quarter and core fruit. 
 Cook slowly in cider and vinegar
until soft.  Add sugar 
 and spices, cook with fruit
pulp stirring frequently.  To 
 test for doneness, remove
a spoonful, it is done if the
 butter remains mounded on
spoon.  Another test for 
 doneness, spoon small quantity
onto plate.  When a rim 
 of liquid does not separate
around the edge of the 
 butter, it is ready for canning. 
 Fill hot into sterile half-pint
or pint jars, leaving 
 1/4-inch headspace. 
Adjust lids and process 
 according to the recommendations
in table 1.
