Want to incorporate more fruits in your child’s diet? How about trying this maple apple butter recipe: it is an easy fruit recipe for kids. They can even help you make it and of course enjoy it. Remember the waffle apple butter snack recipe I shared a while ago? I used a store bought apple butter. I loved it and wondered if I could make one on my own. After all, I had a basket full of apples that were about to rot. My daughter and I went apple picking to two different places in the same week. So we had lots of apples on hand.

What I love about this maple apple butter recipe is that it is easy to make, and you can store it for 3 weeks in the fridge. It’s also a great family gift idea during the holidays. A gift for the hostess or your neighbor. Nothing like homemade treats to please loved ones, right?

 Maple Apple Butter Recipe: Easy Fruit Recipe for Kids

How to make this easy fruit recipe for kids

I found this apple butter recipe in a French cookbook: À l’Érable. I did not find an English version. If I do find it, I will let you know, as I love their maple recipes: easy and simple to make!

 Ingredients

  • 5 apples. I used McIntosh ones. The book recommended Cortland.
  • 1/2 cup of maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup of margarine. The book suggested butter, but I prefer margarine as it is lighter.

 Make this maple apple butter recipe:

  • Wash and peel the apples
  • Dice them
  • In a pot, add syrup and margarine (or butter)
  • bring to the boil
  • Add apples
  • Reduce heat. Let is simmer for 30 minutes or until apples are tender
  • Puree the mixture in your(affiliate link) blender
  • Let it cool and store it in resealable containers up to 3 weeks in a fridge

You can eat it with your favorite waffle recipe, crepe recipe or just with bread. I find it is a great snack recipe for kids when they get back to school. It gives them enough energy to wait until dinner and to do their homework.

What do you think of this easy fruit recipe for kids? Have you ever made maple apple butter?
