Categories     Apple

Time 40m

Yield 3 pints

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 1/2 lbs tart apples, cored and sliced
3 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons brandy (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a large pan cook the apples over low heat, covered, until they are soft, about 20 minutes. You may need to add some water or apple cider to keep them from scorching.
  • Puree the apples by putting them through the medium screen of a food mill or pressing them through a sieve.
  • In a large pan, combine 2 cups of the sugar, the water and the lemon juice. Without stirring or shaking the pan, bring the syrup to a boil and gently boil it until the water has evaporated the the syrup has turned golden brown. Remove the pan from the heat immediately, before the caramel darkens more than you'd like.
  • Add the apple puree to the caramel, which will harden at first and then begin to dissolve. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar and stir over low heat until the sugar and caramel have completely dissolved. Raise the heat to medium-high and bring the jam to a boil. Continue boiling, stirring often, for 8 to 10 minutes until the jam is thick enough that your spoon briefly leaves a clear track at the bottom of the pan.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the brandy, if you are using it, and the vanilla extract. Ladle the jam into pint or half-pint jars and process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.

Tezón Caramel Apple Pie Jam image

Applelicious! . I had a drink that I wanted to create into a jam. TheTezon Anejo is creamy and smooth, with tastes of rich butterscotch and vanilla, with notes of citrus and mellow oak matching well with the apples.This is lovely over pancakes, french toast, ice cream. Stuff it into a crepe or thumb print cookies. Fill apple turnovers fritters. Dot in a cheese cake before baking or top a cheesecake at serving. Swirl it into a coffee cake. Top a brie wrap in puff pastry and bake.

This recipe was inspired by others I had found online. They were very good but seemed to taste more like apple pie, so I changed it to be more like caramel. Hope you enjoy it.

Time 9h

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 half-pint canning jars with lids and rings
8 cups Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and chopped
⅓ cup water
1 tablespoon butter
3 cups brown sugar
2 cups white sugar
1 ½ (1.75 ounce) packages powdered fruit pectin
1 tablespoon clear butter flavoring (such as Wilton®)

Steps:

  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes.
  • Bring apples, water, and butter to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until apples are softened, about 8 minutes. Mix in brown sugar, white sugar, pectin powder, and butter flavoring. Bring to a full rolling boil, stirring often. Cook at a boil for 2 minutes without stirring.
  • Pack the apple jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Let stand 8 hours to overnight before use. Store in a cool, dark area; refrigerate opened jars.

Tips:

  • Choose firm, ripe apples: Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady apples work well.
  • Peel and core the apples thinly: This will help the apples cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the jam from burning.
  • Stir the jam frequently: This will help to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Use a candy thermometer to measure the temperature of the jam: This will help to ensure that the jam reaches the proper consistency.
  • Process the jam in a water bath: This will help to seal the jars and prevent spoilage.

Conclusion:

Caramel apple jam is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed all year long. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this jam is perfect for spreading on toast, waffles, or pancakes. It can also be used as a filling for pies and tarts, or as a glaze for roasted chicken or pork. So, next time you're looking for a delicious and versatile jam, be sure to give caramel apple jam a try!
