Ingredients
5 1/2 pounds apples, peeled, cored and finely chopped
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
4 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
Place apples in a slow cooker. Combine cinnamon, cloves, sugar and salt; pour on apples, and mix well. Cover and cook on high for 1 hour. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook for 9-11 hours or until thickened and dark brown, stirring occasionally (stir more frequently as it thickens to prevent sticking). Uncover and cook on low 1 hour longer; stir with a wire whisk until smooth. Spoon into freezer containers, leaving 1/2 inch head space. Cover and refrigerate or freeze.
