What is Apple Butter?

You might have seen apple butter at a farmers’ market or for sale at a pick-your-own apple orchard, but until you have tasted apple butter fresh from the kettle, you just don’t know what you’re missing.

Apple butter is a super thick, dark applesauce with hints of cinnamon and clove. You can have it on biscuits, warmed and poured over ice cream or added to your morning yogurt. Every fall, people come together to make apple butter in communities across the country. Some apple butter events are large festivals that attract people from across a state. Others are local events held by civic or religious groups. And, many are small family and friend weekend events.
