Spiced apple jelly: a versatile twist on a classic homemade treat, perfect for topping or filling.
Ingredients:
  • 4 cups bottled apple juice
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 (1.75 ounce) package dry pectin
  • 5 cups white sugar
Instructions:
  • Examine 6 half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust, removing any that are damaged. Place jars in simmering water until jelly is prepared. Clean new lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  • In a heavy saucepan, combine apple juice, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pectin. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat until pectin is dissolved. Slowly stir in sugar and bring back to a rolling boil over high heat. Boil for 1 minute.
  • Take the mixture off the heat and use a metal spoon to skim off the foam.
  • Dry the jars thoroughly and fill them with scrumptious apple jelly. Use a clean knife or thin spatula to glide along the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Gently wipe the rims with a moist paper towel to clean any spills. Seal the jars with the lids and screw the rings on securely.
  • Fill a large stockpot halfway with water and bring to a boil, then carefully lower jars into the water using a jar holder. Add more boiling water if needed to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Cover the pot, bring to a rolling boil, and process for 15 minutes.
  • Take the jars out of the stockpot and allow them to cool, spaced several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid gently with your finger to confirm it is secure. Remove the rings for storage and keep the jars in a cool, dark place.
