Whether picked or purchased, apples are a perfect autumn fruit.
We never had apple butter growing up, but eating it still makes me feel nostalgic. Something about a creamy apple cinnamon spread over fresh biscuits makes me all warm and fuzzy. This recipe is a breeze and yields enough to impress your whole neighborhood (or stockpile for yourself!).

Do you think this would work with Splenda substituting for the sugar, or at least part of it? (we have to mind the sugar at our house.)
