FULL RECIPE:

Apple Butter with Reduced Sugar

This recipe will yield about 4 to 5 half-pint jars of reduced-sugar apple Butter

4 pounds of apples
1 cup apple cider
½ cup granulated sucralose*
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground allspice

For testing purposes, Golden Delicious apples and Splenda ○R. were used.

Measure the exact amount of sugar into a separate bowl.
Make apple butter:
• Wash the apples well and remove stems.
• Cut apples into quarters or eighths and remove cores.
• Combined unpeeled apples and cider in an 8-quart saucepan.
• Cook slowly until the apples are very soft (falling apart).
• Position a food mill or strainer securely over a large bowl.
• Press cooked apples with cider through the food mill or strainer to make a pulp.
Be sure to collect all pulp that comes through the food mill or strainer, for example, scrape any pulp clinging under the food mill into the bowl.
• Combine apple pulp with sucralose and spices in an 8-quart saucepan.
• Simmer over low heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens. To test for doneness as a butter, spoon a small quantity onto a clean plate. When the butter mounds on the plate without liquid separating around the edge of the butter, it is ready for processing.
• Another way to test for doneness is to remove a spoonful of the cooked butter on a spoon and hold it away from the steam for 2 minutes. It is done if the butter remains mounded on the spoon.
•Headspace – ¼ inch
•Leave the proper headspace- show measuring headspace
•The unfilled space above the food in a jar and below its lid is referred to as headspace.
•Process – Boiling Water Bath 15 minutes
