pear butter

Place 2 quarts of peeled and diced pears in crock pot.

In a medium bowl mix the following:
2 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt

Pour sugar mixture over pears. Cover and cook on high for about 6 hours stirring occasionally. Uncover and mash pears with a potato masher. Cook uncovered another 1-2 hours or until thickened. Transfer cooled pear butter to plastic freezer containers or 8 oz glass jars, seal, and freeze until ready to use. Allow butter to thaw and use it to spread over toast, biscuits, or pork chops.
