I've been really into making jam recently, and I'd like to branch out and start making apple butter.

Here's my issue - the apple butters I buy from the store (Tap'n Apple, most of the time) have two ingredients; apples and apple cider. The recipes I see for apple butter all call for TONS of sugar and some even call for applesauce or vinegar (gross!).

Anyway...does anyone have a recipe for making apple butter that's only apples and apple cider? I don't care how long it takes to make it, I love slow-cooking food projects.

Once again, thanks for your help!
