How to Make Apple Marmalade
- Peel, core, and chop 6 medium apples into 1/2-inch pieces.
- In a large stainless steel or enamel stockpot, combine the chopped apples, 1 cup of water, and 1/4 cup lemon juice.
- Cover the pot and bring to a gentle boil. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Stir in 1 pouch (1.75 oz) of powdered fruit pectin.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. This is crucial for setting the marmalade.
- Add 7 cups of granulated sugar, 2 thin lemon slices, and 1 cinnamon stick (or 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon).
- Return to a rolling boil and boil hard for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. The mixture will thicken.
- Remove from heat and carefully ladle the hot marmalade into clean, sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace at the top.
- Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes at altitudes up to 1000 feet. Adjust processing time for higher altitudes according to your altitude's canning guidelines. (For example, add 1 minute for every 1000 feet above 1000).
- Let the jars cool completely. You should hear a satisfying ‘pop’ as the jars seal. Check to ensure all jars sealed properly before storing.
