Apple-Plum Butter

==Ingredients==
*2 lb Slightly underripe red plums - quartered
*2 lb Tart apples, quartered
*2 c Unsweetened, unfiltered apple juice
*2 ts Ground cinnamon
==Directions==
#Combine plums, apples and juice in a heavy non-aluminum saucepan. 
#Bring to a boil over medium heat. 
#Reduce heat, cover partially and simmer 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
#Uncover and cook until fruit is very tender, stirring stirring occasionally (20-30 minutes).
#Cool slightly. 
#Force fruit through food mill fitted with medium blade, discarding peel and seeds. (or you can do as I do, seed and pit the fruit
BEFORE cooking. Then, when you reach this stage, all you have to do is run it through a food processor) 
#Return puree to pan, add sugar and cinnamon.
#Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. (careful, mixture can scorch easily!) 
#Reduce heat and simmer briskly until butter is thick and glossy, stirring frequently (about 40 minutes). 
#Remove from heat, spoon into hot sterilized jars and seal. 
==Notes==
