Dry apple jam with cinnamon in the oven

Ingredients

Servings

Apples

3 kg
Sugar

900 G
Citric acid

2 tsp
Cinnamon

1 tsp

Preparation

Step 1

Cut the apples into 1-1.5 cm slices and place them on a baking sheet. Mix the sugar with citric acid and cinnamon, sprinkle the mixture over the apples, and mix with your hands.

Step 2

Place the baking sheet in the oven preheated to 200 degrees Celsius and bake for 20 minutes. Remove and drain the resulting syrup.

Step 3

Place the slices on a mesh or cheesecloth, spaced apart. Hang them on the balcony for 2 days to dry completely.

Step 4

The dried apple jam is ready. Store in natural fabric bags, airtight glass jars, or cardboard boxes at room temperature.

Use a dehydrator

You can significantly reduce the time spent on the final drying process. Instead of letting the apples dry naturally, you can place them in an electric dehydrator and dry them at 60 degrees Celsius (140 degrees Fahrenheit) in just an hour or two. This method is especially useful if autumn rains have started and it's very damp outside.
