Fruit butters (which don't actually contain any dairy) are traditional and concentrated fruity preserves.Here, apples are cooked with spices, water, sugar and optional cider to make a caramelised spread for toast, stirring into yogurt and porridge, or even eating with cheese or other savoury dishes such as pork and sausages.
