Supreme Apple Butter

SUBMITTED BY: A. Parker PHOTO BY: PREGOCOOK

"This is the ultimate apple butter recipe given to me by a former English teacher who loves to cook. It reminds me of fall and tastes heavenly. It's sweet, but not too sweet. It is just perfect. It tastes great on muffins, pancakes and vanilla ice cream."
