Apple-Walnut Maple Conserve image

Versatile and delicious, this conserve reminds me of a warm cozy kitchen; you'll love every bite. I warm the conserve and pour it over vanilla ice cream as a dessert, and it's great as a topping over French toast, biscuits or even pork roast. Be sure to make more than one batch so you can give it as gifts during the holidays.-Paula Marchesi, Lenhartsville, Pennsylvania

I thought this conserve was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I love the crunch of the walnuts in this conserve. It adds a nice textural contrast to the apples.
