Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 large Gala or Jazz apples peeled, cored and diced small
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 1/4 cups unsweetened apple juice
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves

Method
 

  1. Put the apples, butter, brown sugar, apple juice, lemon juice and spices in a large heavy pot.
  2. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a steady simmer. Cook about 30 to 35 minutes, stirring often, until the apples are translucent and amber and the liquid is thick and glossy.
  3. Mash some of the apples with a potato masher for a jammier texture, if you like.
  4. Ladle into clean jars, cool, then cover.
  5. Refrigerate up to 3 weeks or freeze up to 6 months.
