Apple jam with lemon and cinnamon

Ingredients

Servings

Apples

1 kg
Lemon

1 pcs
Sugar

650 G
Water

400 ml
Cinnamon

2 pcs

Preparation

Step 1

Wash the apples, peel them and cut them into small slices.

Step 2

Pour water into a bowl or ladle, add sugar and bring to a boil, cook until the sugar dissolves.

Step 3

Pour the hot syrup over the apples and let them sit for 20 minutes. Then mix everything well. Now turn the heat to high, bring to a boil, and turn off the burner. Let the jam sit for 2 hours.

Step 4

First, cut the lemon into slices, and then into small cubes, like for Olivier salad.

Step 5

Add the citrus and cinnamon to the saucepan with the jam. Stir to distribute evenly. Simmer over low heat for 30 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the pan from the heat, remove the cinnamon sticks and pour the still hot jam into sterilized jars.

Step 7

The apple and lemon jam is ready. Use it as a standalone dessert or as a filling for baked goods.

The white part of the lemon peel can be slightly bitter, adding a refined flavor to the dessert. For a more delicate citrus treat, grate the zest and then simply peel off the white peel. You can also dice the lemon pulp as directed in the recipe.
