Core the apples and then cut them into quarters (leave the peels on).

Add the apples and the water to the Instant Pot.

Naturally release pressure.

Add the spices and sugar to the pot.

Press sauté and adjust to low. Cook uncovered for 15-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apple butter is as thick as you’d like it to be.
