Notes: Note from Georgia: Transparent apples work best.
Lori's notes: There are a few recipes in this book claiming to be grandma's recipe but this is the exact one she used. (Ha Ha)
Her recipe doesn't say anything about processing the jars in a water bath. When I've made this I do about 1/3 of the recipe and put it all in my crock pot for 6-8 hours or until the apples are mushy. I use a stick blender to blend it all up and put it in hot jars. They usually seal themselves. (I'm sure Anna Cash would say this isn't safe, but I haven't killed anyone yet) If not, I put them in the fridge or give them to neighbors. I'm not sure what she meant by apple pulp, I just cut and core them and fill up a large crock pot. The spices and sugar can be adjusted to taste even after it's cooked.
