How to Make Microwave Orange Pineapple Marmalade

  1. Quarter 4 large oranges. Place the quartered oranges into a food processor fitted with a metal blade and process until finely ground.
  2. In a 2 1/2-quart microwave-safe dish, combine the ground oranges, 1 cup of chopped fresh pineapple, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
  3. Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
  4. Microwave on high for 10 minutes, or until the mixture begins to boil, stirring halfway through.
  5. Continue microwaving on high for another 3-5 minutes, or until the marmalade reaches your desired consistency, stirring every minute to prevent scorching. The marmalade should thicken as it cools.
  6. Remove from the microwave and let cool completely, stirring occasionally to prevent skin formation on the surface.
  7. Once cooled, store the marmalade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a month or freeze for up to 6 months.
