- Peel, core & cut your apples into large chunks 
- Place prepared apples & all other ingredients in crock pot on high. 
- Cover & cook about 6 hours- stirring every hour or so. 
- After about 5 hours of cooking - Spoon out remaining large pieces into a blender & blend until smooth. (or use emulsion blender) 
- Pour blended apples back in crock pot, stir well & let cook the last 30-60 minutes. 
- When done- transfer to prepared jars. 
- I store mine in the freezer until the day before I need it. Thaw in refrigerator overnight.
