Spiced Crabapples

I made this in 2021 with the first crabapples I picked from a pippin tree that was growing near Eagletree in Casco.

• 2 1/4 C cleaned crabapples (maybe 3/4 lb)
• 5/8 C vinegar -- might as well be cider vinegar
• 3/4 C brown sugar
• 1/2 t whole cloves
• 1/2 t allspice berries

Mix all ingredients and bring to a boil.

Simmer until apples are tender.

Put in clean, sterilized half-pint jars and seal.
