Apple Juice Vitamix Recipes

EASY VITAMIX® APPLE JAM

Steps:

• Remove stems from apples and discard; wash. Peel and remove cores; reserve. Dice apples.
• Place apples into a large microwave-safe dish and microwave for 20 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes.
• At the same time, place peelings and cores into a pot with enough water to barely cover. Boil for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove diced apples from the microwave and mash with a potato masher. Add sugar, pectin, ginger, and salt. Stir.
• Pour cores, peelings, and liquid apple mixture into a Vitamix® and blend on high speed (8 or 9) until everything is well broken down to a thin applesauce consistency, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Transfer the apple mixture to a deep skillet and bring to a rolling boil. Reduce heat and let simmer until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat, mix in lemon juice, and fill jars; clean the rims and seal.
