This is a recipe a friend shared with me many years ago. From the first time I tried it I knew it was a keeper! I made a batch of the jam and there was a little left in the pot so I poured it into a small bowl to pop into the refrigerator. I did the fatal mistake of taking a spoonful to try it. It never made it the refrigerator after all! Ingredients:
4 cups apples, heaping |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ginger powder |
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg |
3 cups white sugar |
2 cups brown sugar, packed |
1 (1 3/4 ounce) box dry pectin |
1 teaspoon butter |
Directions:
1. Chop apples fine and place in a 4 cup measuring cup, ensuring they are heaping. Add water (or apple juice) to the 4 cup line while the apples are still in the measuring cup.
2. Place apples, pectin, butter, lemon juice and spices into a pot and bring to a boil.
3. Add sugars and bring back to a full rolling boil, continue boiling for 1 minute.
4. Remove from heat and skim off any foam.
5. Ladle into sterilzed jars, leaving 1/4-inch space.
