Honeyed Carrot Cake Butter

• 3 medium apples, cored and chopped (no need to peel)
• 2 medium carrots, chopped
• 14 cup honey (I like a dark amber for this)
• 14 cup unsweetened apple juice
• 1 pinch nutmeg
• 3 tablespoons ground walnuts

1. Preheat the oven to 350F.
2. Combine apples, carrots, honey and apple juice in a covered casserole.
3. Roast for 2 1/2 hours, until carrots are very soft.
4. Transfer to a food processor or blender and puree (or pass through a food mill).
5. Return to the casserole dish.
6. Re-cover and bake another 1 1/2 hours, then remove the lid and bake a further 30-40 minutes, until dark brown and very thick.
7. Stir in the nutmeg and walnuts.
8. Cool completely, then store in the fridge up to 2 weeks.
