This recipe relies on a 3:1 jam sugar ratio, yielding a less sweet and more fruit-forward jam. 

The slightly tart, intensely-scented lavender flowers contain essential oils that have a gentle calming effect on both nerves and a stressed stomach.

1 Cutting board, 1 Sieve, 1 Small knife, 1 Kitchen scale, 1 large Pot, 1 Wooden spoon, 1 Teaspoon, 1 Ladle, 1 canning jar

Preparation steps

1.
Blackberry and Apple Spread preparation step 1

Rinse a large jar or mixed-size jars (approximately 30 ounces total capacity) together with matching lids in boiling water and leave upside down to drain on a kitchen towel. Gently rinse blackberries in a strainer and drain.

2.
Blackberry and Apple Spread preparation step 2

Rinse apples, peel, quarter and core.

3.
Blackberry and Apple Spread preparation step 3

Cut apple quarters in half lengthwise and cut crosswise into slices.

4.
Blackberry and Apple Spread preparation step 4

Cut large blackberries in half if necessary. Weigh 26 ounces of blackberries and apples and mix with jam sugar in a large pot.

5.
Blackberry and Apple Spread preparation step 5

Bring mixture to a boil over high heat while stirring and cook for an additional 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

6.
Blackberry and Apple Spread preparation step 6

Fold in lavender flowers, return to a boil and immediately pour into prepared jars. Close lids, invert jars, and let stand for 5 minutes upside down. Turn jars over again and allow to cool. (The spread will keep, well-sealed, and refrigerated for about 6 months.)

Tip: To preserve the spread for longer, you will need to process the jars according to the manufacturer's instructions.
