Apple Butter is a concentrated form of apples, retaining many of the fruit’s nutrients. Apples are rich in fiber, vitamin C, and various antioxidants. The slow cooking process intensifies these nutrients. However, it’s also high in sugar, so moderation is key. To make it healthier, you can reduce the added sugar or use a natural sweetener like maple syrup. The cinnamon in this recipe may help regulate blood sugar levels. For a lower calorie option, use this as a spread instead of butter or jam. Remember, while fruity and delicious, Apple Butter is still a concentrated source of sugar and calories, so enjoy it as an occasional treat as part of a balanced diet.
