Buttery Caramel Apple Jam image

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.

I'm going to try making this jam with different fruits, like peaches or berries.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my jam turned out too runny.

I'm allergic to apples, so I used pears instead. The jam turned out great!

The jam didn't set properly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This jam is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This apple jam is a delightful treat! The combination of sweet apples, rich caramel, and a hint of butter creates a flavor that is both comforting and sophisticated.
