Pour the apple cider into a large saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced by half, about 20 minutes.
Stir in the unsweetened applesauce, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until well combined.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour or until thick and spreadable.
Once the apple butter is done, let it cool slightly before transferring it to a clean jar or container.
While the apple butter is cooling, toast the gluten-free bread slices until golden and crispy.
Spread a layer of unsalted butter on each slice of toast while it is still warm.
Generously spread the homemade apple butter over the buttered toast.
If desired, sprinkle chopped walnuts on top for added texture and flavor.
Serve the toast immediately while warm, or store the apple butter in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
