Old Fashioned Peach Butter Crock Pot Recipes

PEACH BUTTER OR PEACH MANGO BUTTER

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in the crock pot. Cook for 2 1/2 hours on low with lid on.
• Then prop open the lid (use a wooden spoon laid across the edge) and cook for another 2-3 hours or until the fruit mixture is soft.
• Use an immersion blender or process the mixture in a blender until smooth and thick.
• Ladle into jars and refrigerate.

OLD-FASHIONED PEACH BUTTER RECIPE

Steps:

• Start by removing the pits from your peaches and cutting them into quarters.
• Toss them in your food processor or high-speed blender, and process until they are smooth. (Be careful not to liquefy them- we are wanting a smooth puree, not peach juice)
• Now we need to cook the puree so it reaches the perfect consistency. You have two options: a slow cooker or a regular ol' pot on the stove.
• Slow Cooker Version: This method takes longer (anywhere from several hours to all day), but requires less babysitting. Simply pour your peach puree into your slow cook, and set it on low. You'll want to crack the lid open to allow the steam to escape. Otherwise, your peach butter won't reduce and thicken.
• Stove top Version: This method takes less time, but you need to be there to make sure you don't get peach butter spewed all over your kitchen. Pour the peach puree in a large stock pot and set it on the stove over medium-low heat. Stir frequently to prevent burning (and splashing) and continue to cook until it reaches the desired consistency (30-40 minutes)
• Perform a quick taste test to see if you need to add sweetener- my peaches were pretty sweet already, so I only added about 1/2 cup of sweetener to my batch.
• Now eat and enjoy, or freeze or can for later.
