This Apricot Jam only needs 3 ingredients, so easy to make and will last you for months!
How amazing is that?
My neighbour’s apricot tree is brimming with fruit and I have been told for years to help myself. Well this year I have and the resulting Apricot Jam is delicious.
Method
-
Halve and remove the stones from the apricots.
-
Place them into a large pot and add the water.
-
Allow to boil and add sugar.
-
Allow to simmer until reduced by about half.
-
Once cooked and thickened place a small amount onto a spoon and into the fridge.
-
If this sets in a few minutes to firm enough you know you are done.
-
Place into clean recycled glass jars and leave 2cm at the top seal with the lid.
-
The hot jam will expand the hot air and then contract sealing the lid.
Recipe Hints and Tips:
- Apricot Jam is not suitable to freeze.
- Will last three months in a sealed jar.
