How to Make Apple Onion Jam

Combine 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced, in a small saucepan with ¾ cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons apple cider, and 6 whole allspice berries.
Bring to a boil over high heat.
Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes until onions soften.
Remove and discard the allspice berries.
Peel, core, and thinly slice 2 medium apples (such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith).
Add the sliced apples and the remaining ¾ cup apple cider to the onion mixture.
Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is soft and jam-like, about 30-40 minutes. Adjust cooking time depending on desired consistency.
Remove from heat and let cool completely to room temperature. The jam will thicken further as it cools.
