10 cups peeled, chopped apples
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp each ground nutmeg, ground cloves & ground allspice

Put apple cider and apples in large kettle and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. Stir often.

When apples are soft, add the rest of the ingredients. Pour mixture into baking dishes and cover with foil.

Bake at 300 degrees for 1-1/2 hours. If necessary, uncover for apple butter to reach desired consistency.
