All Day Apple Butter

5 1/2 lb Apples; peeled & finely chopped
4 c Sugar
2 ts Cinnamon; to 3 ts.
1/4 ts Cloves, ground
1/4 ts ; salt

Place apples in slow cooker. Combine sugar, cinnamon, cloves and salt; pour over apples and mix well. Cover and cook on high for 1 hour. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook for 9-11 hours or until thickened and dark brown, stirring occasionally (stir more frequently as it thickens to prevent sticking). Uncover and cook on low 1 hour longer. If desired, stir with a wire whisk until smooth. Spoon into freezer containers, leaving 1/2" headspace. Cover and refrigerate or freeze.
