How to Make Apricot Almond Cinnamon Jam
- Wash and pit the apricots. Roughly chop them into small pieces.
- Combine the chopped apricots, sugar, lemon juice, and water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to dissolve the sugar.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Skim off any foam that forms on the surface.
- Stir in the almond extract and cinnamon. Continue to simmer for another 10 minutes, stirring regularly.
- Remove from heat and let the jam cool slightly. Prepare sterilized jars.
- Ladle the hot jam into the prepared jars, leaving about 1/4 inch headspace.
- Wipe the rims of the jars clean and seal tightly with lids.
- Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (to ensure proper sealing). Remove jars and let cool completely. Allow to set for at least one month before enjoying.
