Ingredients

- Ingredients
- 12 cups Apple (peeled and chopped)
- 2 cups lemon juice
- 2 cups honey
- 3 cups sugar
- 1 envelope liquid Pectin
- lemon zest (from 3 lemons)
Preparation steps
1.
Prepare your canning pot, as well as seven pint jars, lids and rings.
2.
Combine the chopped apples and lemon juice in a large, heavy-bottomed pot (an enameled Dutch oven works well here) and cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the apples have broken down. When you’ve got a nice, chunky applesauce, add the honey and sugar and stir to incorporate.
3.
Bring the fruit to a boil and cook for at least five minutes at a roll (watch out though, it will bubble and depending on the size of your pot, can get a little splashy). Add pectin and boil for a few minutes more, to active the pectin. When it seems nice and jammy, turn off the heat and stir in the lemon zest.
4.
Fill jars, wipe rims (this jam is sticky, so you may need to add a bit of white vinegar to your towel, to help ensure a clean rim), apply lids and screw on bands. Process in a boiling water canner for ten minutes.
