Our 26th slice of toast - Apple butter

We made the apple butter ourselves.  We bought an apple, only to find upon cutting that it wasn't ageing well.  It was also fairly spongey to the touch.  There's a lesson there - give those apples a good fingering before you buy.  We weren't really perturbed by the apple's darkening insides, so cut it up and zapped it in the microwave for a couple of minutes until soft.  We then mushed it all up with butter and hey presto!

No, its not the same as apple sauce, though not a million miles away.  It was however very nice, potentially improved by the rotting for a sweeter taste.
