Apple Pie In A Jar Recipes

APPLE JAM (APPLE PIE IN A JAR)

Steps:

• Combine apples, white sugar, light brown sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice in a pot; bring to a rolling boil. Cook at a boil, stirring occasionally, until fruit is soft and jam gelling point (220 degrees F (104 degrees C) is reached, at least 45 minutes. Put a small amount of jam on a cold plate; freeze for several minutes. If the mixture is gelled, it is ready to process in a canner.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack apple jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

APPLE PIE IN A JAR

Steps:

• Heat 7 1 quart jars while peeling the apples, I pour lemon juice on them to keep them from browning. Once the apples are peeled mix the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and water in a large kettle. Heat this over high heat, stirring almost constantly. Bring to a boil, remove the jars from the boiling water and fill with the raw apples. When the sauce is ready it will be clear and thick. Pour the sauce over the apples in the jars, using a knife around the edges to release air bubbles. Fill to 3/4 of an inch from the top. Wipe the rims, place lids on jars, boil in a boiling water bath for twenty minutes. Sometimes they do ooze after being removed from the heat, these I put in the refrigerator and they are eaten first!
