Instructions
Core, peel & chop the apples & put in them in the slow cooker on high.
Add brown sugar, cinnamon, molasses, vanilla, ginger, nutmeg and salt.
Cover and cook on high for 1 hour.
Use an immersion blender & blend the softened apples carefully until smooth - or ladle them into a blender and puree (no chunks- still thick). Pour the mixture back into the slow cooker.
Stir & reduce to low & continue cooking for 1 hour.
Ladle into sterile jars.
I put one in the fridge to use the next morning & 4 in the freezer for later.
