Recipes that use Apple Butter

I know that Apple Butter may be a little foreign to some people. I mean, other than spreading it on your morning toast, what do you do with it? So, I thought I’d share some Recipes that use Apple Butter.

I shared a great recipe earlier this week for Crock Pot Apple Butter. While this apple butter cooks, it smells amazing! Homemade goodness that only the smell of cooking apples can bring.

That’s where my creative blogger friends come in! I’ve collected a bunch of AWESOME recipes for you, as well as some general ideas. Start your day with apple butter for breakfast, have it as a snack, with dinner, or as dessert. It goes everywhere and does everything! Lol

Here are the recipes for you! Happy eating!
