It's not too sweet as less sugar is needed. I use the dark cider (or use your homemade cider) for more robust cider taste.

APPLE CIDER CINNAMON JELLY



Apple Cider Cinnamon Jelly image

I have not tried jelly. I'm posting this for safe keeping. I found this recipe Complete Book Of Small Batch Preserves. This full bodied taste of fresh apple cider spiced with cinnamon is marvelous on toast and hot biscuits. Try heating the jelly and serve over pancakes or french toast. Reserve the cinnamon stick and add a small piece to each jar for an attractive garnish and more intense cinnamon flavor. I plan to use Splenda for the sugar.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady are all good choices.
  • Be sure to wash and core the apples before cooking. This will help to remove any pesticides or bacteria.
  • Cook the apples until they are very soft. This will help to release their natural pectin, which is essential for a good jelly.
  • Add the apple cider vinegar and cinnamon sticks to the apples during the cooking process. This will help to infuse the jelly with flavor.
  • Strain the jelly through a cheesecloth-lined colander to remove any solids. This will help to create a smooth, clear jelly.
  • Process the jelly in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. This will help to seal the jars and prevent spoilage.
