Nutty Apple Butter
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Cook: 8 hours
YIELD: 5 cups.
Being a New England native, I love apple-picking season. Grab some apples and peanut butter to make your own creamy riff on a PB&J. Of course it’s great on a sandwich, but you can dunk sliced fruit or graham crackers in it, too. —Brandie Cranshaw, Rapid City, South Dakota
