Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups unsweetened apple sauce
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 4 slices sourdough bread slices
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the unsweetened apple sauce, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, lemon juice, and sea salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the apple mixture for about 45-60 minutes, or until it thickens to a spreadable consistency. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Once thickened, remove the apple butter from the heat and let it cool slightly.
While the apple butter cools, toast the sourdough bread slices to your preferred level of crispiness.
In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the coconut oil. Lightly brush or drizzle the melted coconut oil over the toasted sourdough slices.
Spread a generous layer of the cooled apple butter over each piece of toast.
Serve immediately, with optional garnishes such as a sprinkle of additional cinnamon or a few chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.
