Makes Approximately: 8-9 pints
Making use of your favorite method, wash slice apples, take away the cores and incorperate your sliced apples peels (if preferred) towards the Slow Cooker towards the very the surface of the lid. (Peels aren't necessary however i always add mine.)
Add 1 cup water or apple cider or juice for those who have any on hands.
Each morning or after 10-12 hrs, utilizing an immersion blender, puree the apples until it's totally smooth if that's your choice. (its ours)
Add 4 cups brown sugar 4 tablespoons cinnamon towards the puree while using immersion blender to combine them in well.
