A delightful and aromatic apple preserve with a hint of cinnamon, perfect for spreading on toast or as a topping for desserts.
Combine the fresh apples, water, and fresh lemon juice in a large pot.
Cut the apples into even slices to ensure uniform cooking.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stirring prevents the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Add the ground cinnamon and white sugar to the pot, stirring until dissolved.
Adding the sugar gradually helps it dissolve evenly.
Boil the mixture hard for 1 minute while stirring constantly.
A hard boil ensures the preserve reaches the right consistency.
Remove from heat and ladle the preserve into sterilized jars, leaving a small headspace.
Use a funnel to avoid spilling the preserve while filling the jars.
Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes to seal them.
Ensure the jars are fully submerged in the water bath for proper sealing.
Allow the jars to cool completely before storing them in a cool, dark place.
Check the seals on the jars after cooling to ensure they are airtight.
