Disney’s Apple Butter is the first recipe in our Holiday Side Dish week. This recipe come from Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. This is a great sauce for toast, scones, muffins or many other breakfast dishes. It would also make a great sauce for almost any meal, including a spread on sandwiches or a side for dipping chicken fingers.
Be sure to try this with our Mickey Mouse Waffles and Pumpkin Apple Jumbo Muffins. It’s a perfect taste compliment for these dishes.
