Christi is a member of our private Facebook group, Making Vanilla Extract by VanillaPura. Earlier this week, she shared her recipe for Apple Extract which we thought would be perfect to share with fall not being too far away! This extract would be the perfect addition to baked goods, hot apple cider, and more! We are excited to share this recipe in her own words and pictures. 

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of freeze-dried apples
• 3 cups of vodka

Instructions: 

1. Place the ingredients in a glass jar with a lid. 
2. Change out the apples every week for 3 weeks and add 1 cup of apples (apples absorb lots of liquid that's why I ended last 2 weeks with only 1 cup) for next week then repeat.
3. Strain, run threw coffee filter and done! The extract takes about 5 weeks to be done.

Note: I'm also making a vanilla apple as well, however its not done yet. Any questions please feel free to ask I'm more than willing to answer.
