Ingredients

  • 5 lbs carrots
  • 2 cups apple juice or 2 cups apple cider
  • 3 cups apple juice or 3 cups apple cider
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven for 350°F.
  2. 2
    Cut carrots into thin slices (if you'd like to peel them you may. If you don't peel them I recommend using organic carrots or at least ones you know weren't grown with chemicals).
  3. 3
    Cook the carrot slices in a large roasting pan with two cups of apple juice or cider for three hours uncovered. Stirring the carrots every half hour or so.
  4. 4
    Put the cooked carrots and the three cups of apple juice or cider in a blender until it reaches the consistency of something you'd like to spread on toast.
  5. 5
    Put the carrot mixture in a large pot. Mix in the brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice, and cloves. Heat this on the stove for 10 min stirring constantly.
  6. 6
    Pour into sterilized pint or half pint jars and can.
