Is it necessary to use an Instant Pot?
Of course not, you can prepare your Apple Butter using a stovetop as well.
As for me, I love my Instant Pot since it saves me a lot of time. I also feel relief while cooking in it as I don't have to keep hovering around.
How to serve?
This would be work great with some classic or Gluten-Free toasts.
Or you can have your Instant Pot apple butter with Flatbread, add some lettuce, and a few slices of crispy bacon.
That would make such a sweet and savory combination!
How to make
Gather the five magic ingredients.
Cut apples and chuck them into the Instant Pot.
Add water into the Instant Pot.
Cover the lid of the Instant pot and set it to High pressure for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, take cloves and pinch them.

Mix well and take the mixture out to pour it into a blender. Blend the mixture.
Once blended well, pour it back into the Instant Pot.
Saute for 5 minutes or until the desired consistency.

Welcome to my kitchen! I am Corrie, the blogger behind Corrie Cooks. I run this blog with my wife since 2017, so you can enjoy quick, easy and delicious Instant Pot recipes. Thank you for stopping by 🙂
In the pot it looked like the peels were on,and in the cooked verion it looked like the peels were off. What is the best way ?
You recipe is great. Unfortunately my wife said it wasn't enough to share with some of her friends. How do you suggest I double or triple the recipe and cooking time please.
Thanks!! This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled, as long as it fits below the maximum fill line. The cooking time will remain the same.
How much butter does this make?
Very easy, happy happy not to have to hover over a pot. Notes: I used my own Parkway apples, which are about the size of golf balls, so I had to guesstimate how much per batch. Decided to fill to halfway on pot, worked well. In future, I'd suggest specifying apples by weight, cored. Don't know why, but the recipe still made more apple sauce than apple butter. Thanks.
That makes sense, thank you for your feedback! I will keep that in mind. And I'm glad you liked the recipe!
Can you freeze the apple butter?
Yes, you can! It will stay good in the freezer for 6 months to a year.
instead of a blender, can you use an immersion blender. one less big item to clean
Yes absolutely, that's a great idea. I'm always looking for ways to make less dirty dishes
how much sugar?
1/4 cup
