Beginner-friendly jam recipe, perfect for gifting.
Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 3/4 cup apple cider
  • 1 cup real maple or maple-flavored syrup
  • 5 Gala or Golden Delicious apples, peeled, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon maple flavor
  • 6 half-pint canning jars with lids
Instructions:
  • In a 3-quart saucepan, combine brown sugar and cornstarch. Pour in cider and syrup, mix until smooth. Add apples and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes until apples are tender. Remove from heat and stir in maple flavor.
  • Fill an 8-quart stockpot or deep Dutch oven about two-thirds full of water and bring it to a boil.
  • Pour the hot jam into jars, leaving 1/2-inch space at the top. Seal with lids. Submerge jars in a pot of boiling water, ensuring they are covered with at least 1 inch of water. Boil for 10 minutes. Remove jars using tongs and let them cool on a rack. Once cooled, press the center of each lid to check if sealed. Store any opened jam in the refrigerator.
