Spiced Pear Butter Canning

Spiced Pear Butter Canning is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for preserving the flavors of fall. This recipe is perfect for those who love the taste of pears and want to enjoy them all year round. The recipe is made with fresh pears, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, which give it a warm and spicy flavor.

To make Spiced Pear Butter Canning, you will need the following ingredients:

- 10 pounds of ripe pears, peeled, cored, and chopped
- 2 cups of granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves

This recipe makes about 8-10 half-pint jars of Spiced Pear Butter Canning.
To start, combine the chopped pears, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a large pot. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the pears are soft and the mixture has thickened, about 30-40 minutes.
Once the mixture has thickened, use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Return the mixture to the pot and continue cooking over low heat for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the pear butter is cooking, prepare your canning jars and lids according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once the pear butter is ready, ladle it into the jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, place the lids on top, and screw on the bands.
Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Once the jars have cooled, check the seals and store in a cool, dark place for up to a year.
Spiced Pear Butter Canning is a perfect combination of sweet and spicy flavors. The warm spices of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves complement the sweetness of the pears perfectly. This dish is perfect for breakfast, as a spread on toast or bagels, or as a topping for ice cream or yogurt.
