Caramel Apple Jam is a sweet and spiced preserve made with fresh apples, brown sugar, and warm spices, giving it the rich flavor of caramel apples in spreadable form.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups peeled, cored, and finely chopped apples (about 6 medium apples)
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 package (1.75 oz) fruit pectin
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare jars and lids by sterilizing them in boiling water and keeping them warm until ready to use.
  2. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine apples, lemon juice, and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until apples are tender, about 10 minutes.
  3. Stir in pectin and bring mixture to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
  4. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt. Return to a full boil and boil hard for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  5. Remove from heat and skim off any foam. Ladle hot jam into prepared jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
  6. Wipe rims, apply lids, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust time for altitude as needed).
  7. Let jars cool for 24 hours. Check seals and store in a cool, dark place. Refrigerate after opening.

Notes

  • Use a mix of tart and sweet apples for a more complex flavor.
  • Jam may take 24–48 hours to fully set after canning.
  • Delicious on toast, biscuits, pancakes, or as a filling for pastries.
