How to Make In A Hurry Marmalade Microwave

  1. Shred the zest and flesh of 1 large orange using a food processor or fine grater.
  2. Measure 1 cup of the shredded orange mixture and transfer it to a microwave-safe bowl.
  3. Add 1 cup of granulated sugar to the bowl with the shredded orange.
  4. Microwave on medium-high power (approximately 70%) for 3-minute intervals, stirring well after each interval. Continue until the marmalade has thickened to your desired consistency (approximately 8-11 minutes total).
  5. Avoid overcooking; the marmalade should thicken as it cools.
  6. Let the marmalade cool completely before transferring it to a sterilized jar. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
