Ingredients

• 4 cups unsweetened apple sauce
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
• 4 slices sourdough bread slices
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the unsweetened apple sauce, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, lemon juice, and sea salt.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the apple mixture for about 45-60 minutes, or until it thickens to a spreadable consistency. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 4

Once thickened, remove the apple butter from the heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 5

While the apple butter cools, toast the sourdough bread slices to your preferred level of crispiness.

Step 6

In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the coconut oil. Lightly brush or drizzle the melted coconut oil over the toasted sourdough slices.

Step 7

Spread a generous layer of the cooled apple butter over each piece of toast.

Step 8

Serve immediately, with optional garnishes such as a sprinkle of additional cinnamon or a few chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.
