To begin, select the apples suitable for this dish. Fruits should be firm, strong, with dense, juicy pulp. Ideally, they will only be picked from the tree. Overripe, soft fruits are definitely not suitable; it is better to make jam or marmalade from them. Cut the apples into slices about 0.5 cm thick and place them in the container in which you will cook the jam. Apples cut too thin will quickly lose their shape, and if you overdo it with the thickness of the slices, then they simply won’t cook properly.

Sprinkle sugar on top of the apples and let sit for a while until the fruit releases its juice. This process will take from 2 to 5 hours depending on the juiciness of the fruit.

Place the pan with the fruit over the lowest heat and simmer for five minutes. Remove from the stove and leave the jam to cool completely.

Then cook the jam over low heat for another 10 minutes, using a spoon to dip the slices into the sugar syrup. Turn off the heat and leave it to steep again. Repeat this step again until the slices are completely transparent and the syrup itself has thickened.

I like apple jam in slices because you can eat it not only on its own, but also use these same slices in other dishes. For example for .

There are a lot of options for making apple jam; in this article I tried to choose ones that would simplify the cooking process as much as possible, but without losing taste.

Apple jam slices “amber”: recipe with photo

To begin with, I offer you a classic recipe for amber jam, which uses only apples and sugar.

Ingredients:

  • Apples – 1 kg
  • Sugar – 1 kg

That is, for every kilogram of apples, you need to take 1 kilogram of sugar. Decide for yourself how much jam you want to make.

Preparation:

Wash the apples well and wipe them thoroughly - excess liquid We don't need it.

Remove the core from the apples and cut them into slices.

If the apples are fresh with a thin peel, then peeling is not necessary. If it is dense and hard, then it is better to peel the apples


In this multi-layer design, the last thing to be added is sugar.


Cover the bowl with a lid or towel and leave it until the apples release their juice. This usually takes from 12 to 20 hours.

The fact that the apples are ready will be evident by the fact that the top layers of sugar will completely dissolve, and a lot of liquid will appear in the bowl.


Transfer the apples from the bowl to a deep saucepan. Add the juice and sugar from the bottom of the bowl there. Place the pan over medium heat and bring the future jam to a boil. After boiling, cook for another 5 minutes, then turn off and wait until the pan cools completely.

Then boil the jam again and cook it for 10 minutes. Turn off again and let the pan cool.

The third boiling will be the final one. When the jam boils, cook it for 5 to 30 minutes, depending on what color you want. The longer you cook, the darker the color of the jam.

Several rounds of boiling and boiling are necessary so that the apples have time to boil, but retain their shape, and the sugar does not darken and turn into caramel. If you want to boil everything in one go for 40-50 minutes, you will end up with an unattractive dark slurry

Now the jam is ready and can be spread out. Fill the jars up to the shoulders, compacting them tightly but without damaging the slices.

Then we close the jars with lids and leave them to cool upside down. There is no need to cover the jars, otherwise the apple slices will boil and fall apart.

After cooling, store the jars in a cool, dark place.


Quick five-minute apple jam

Feature this recipe is that we do not wait for the apples to “let out the juice” and the resulting syrup is suitable for making jam. We will prepare the syrup ourselves, which will save at least 12 hours.

But this speed will have to be paid for by the meticulous preparation of the fruit.

It’s no secret that the speed at which apples soak directly depends on the size of the slices into which you cut the apples. The classic “five-minute” recipe generally involves grating apples on a coarse grater.

But we need slices. So that's what we'll do.

Ingredients:

  • Apples – 1 kg
  • Sugar – 1 kg
  • Water - 1 glass (250 ml)
  • Citric acid - 1 pinch

Preparation:

The better we prepare the apples, the better they will be soaked in syrup. Therefore, we not only remove the core of apples, but also peel them. After that, cut them into slices as thin as the sharpness of your knife allows.


Now let's start preparing the syrup. This is incredibly simple - pour one kilogram of sugar into one glass of water, put it on low heat and cook the syrup until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Don't forget to stir periodically.

While making the syrup, pour salted water over the apple slices to prevent them from browning.


When the water boils and the sugar dissolves, add apples to the pan and boil them for just two minutes. Then turn off the stove and leave the jam to cool.

When it has cooled, take a sample - if the jam is too cloying and sweet, add a pinch of citric acid to it.

After the first cooling, turn the heat back on low and bring the jam to a boil again. After which you can immediately put it into sterilized jars.

Apple jam slices “amber with orange”

Let's start adding other ingredients to apple jam to delight ourselves with a variety of flavors.

First, add an orange to the apple jam.


Ingredients:

  • Apples – 1 kg
  • Oranges – 1 kg
  • Sugar - 0.5 kg

From this quantity you will get one liter jar apple jam.

Preparation:

Peel the apples, cut out the core and cut into slices.

And we cut the oranges, take out the seeds and pass them through a meat grinder along with the peel.


After this, combine all the ingredients in one pan, put it on the fire and cook over low heat for 50 minutes, stirring occasionally.

For making jam best choice there will be enamel dishes (saucepan or basin)


When the jam is cooked, the apple slices should become transparent, and the syrup should flow heavily from a spoon (like honey).

Once you have reached this consistency, you can put the finished jam into sterilized jars.


Store cooled jars in a cool, dark place.

Transparent apple jam “amber with lemon”

Theoretically, apple jam with lemon can be prepared according to the same principle as with oranges. But I tried to select such recipes, each of which has its own distinguishing feature. In this option we will do without a meat grinder.


Ingredients:

  • 1.5 kg apples
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 kg sugar
  • 1 glass of water

Preparation:

The first step is to prepare the syrup. Add 1 kg of sugar to 1 glass of water (250 ml) and bring the syrup over low heat until it boils and the sugar is completely dissolved.


While the syrup is cooking, prepare the fruit.

Cut the lemon into small slices along with the peel.

Don't forget to remove the seeds from the lemon, otherwise the jam will taste bitter.

Place the lemon in the boiling syrup and cook for 5-7 minutes.


Wash the apples, remove the core and cut into small half-centimeter slices.

One and a half kilograms of apples should yield approximately 1 kilogram of apple slices

Add apples to syrup and cook for another 5 minutes.


After this, turn off the heat and let the jam cool completely. Then turn the heat back on low, bring to a boil and cook the jam for another 30 minutes until thickened.

After this, you can either let it cool and put it in clean jars (without sterilization) for storage in the refrigerator (for 3-4 months), or put the still hot jam in sterilized jars and safely store it in the cellar for a whole year.

Long-term storage is ensured by the citric acid content in the jam, which acts as a preservative.

Apple jam slices from ranetki: video recipe

And here it is very interesting recipe ranetka jam. The process is shown in great detail, so I recommend watching it. Moreover, the video lasts only 6 minutes.

Apple jam with cinnamon

Well last recipe, which rounds out the methods I'm familiar with for making sliced ​​apple jam, is a recipe with added cinnamon. Cinnamon complements the taste of apples very well, giving them a special aroma.

This recipe does not require long-term storage and can be stored in the refrigerator for 1 month


Ingredients:

  • Apples – 1.5 kg
  • Sugar - 800 g
  • Water 50 ml
  • Cinnamon 1 stick

Preparation:

Peel the apples, remove the core and cut into small slices.

Place the apples in a deep saucepan and pour in 50 ml cold water and add half of the prepared sugar. Mix everything well and put a cinnamon stick on top.


Place the pan on strong fire and bring the syrup to a boil, stirring constantly. After boiling, reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring, for another 10 minutes.

Then turn off the heat and let the jam cool for one hour.

Then put the pan back on the fire, add the remaining sugar and cook over medium heat for another 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

During this time, the apples become transparent and the syrup becomes thick.


After the specified time, remove the pan from the heat and leave the jam to cool right in it. After cooling, the apple jam is ready for use.

Whatever you are not ready to eat right now, put it in jars with lids and put them in the refrigerator. Do not put cinnamon sticks in jars.


As you can see, clear apple jam in slices can be prepared in completely different ways: with or without preliminary sugaring. You can cook for 5 minutes so as not to lose the vitamins, or you can cook for an hour to get thick jam.

I hope I helped you decide what you need.

Thank you for your attention.

We measure out exactly a kilogram of prepared apples and, sprinkle with sugar, place them in layers in a bowl. Leave for three hours so that the fruit slices release their juice. We check, and if little juice has been released, add 100 ml of cool water to the apples.

Place the bowl of fruit on the lowest heat setting and wait for it to boil. From time to time, gently stir the jam so that all the sugar is evenly distributed in the syrup. Having lowered the heat to a minimum after boiling, boil the jam for five minutes and immediately turn it off.
