Thanks, I loves me some apple butter. Unfortunately the stuff you buy in the store probably contains high fructose corn syrup!

Excellent recipe! I'm going to try out some for Thanksgiving. One question though, is it better to make a bouquet garni with whole spices to remove them at the end, or use the ground like you suggest?

Thank You
