Apple and Cinnamon Jam

Stop buying fruit jams! Since Halloween is almost here, let's make a nice smooth, sweet apple jam. The way to make other fruit jams is similar to this one. So, once you've learned this one you're ready to try with other fruits. Easy to spread, light and delicious... and funny to make.



Ingredients



2 to 3 apples. Since we're doing a jam pick less acidic apples.
Sugar.
Salt. Just a pinch.
Cinnamon. Half a stick or a small pinch of powdered cinnamon.
2 table spoons of water.
A knife or peeler, a pan, a grater and a cooking spoon.


Directions



Wash and peel the apples.
Grate the apples to a pan.
Add a pinch of salt, half a stick of cinnamon or a pinch of powdered cinnamon.
Add sugar. Use the same amount of sugar as you have of apple. If you have a scale weight the apple pulp and then use that same weight of sugar. For instance, if you have 150g of apple pulp use 150g of sugar. But you can skip the scale and try to match the quantity of apple pulp with the amount of sugar.
Add two tablespoons of water.
Put the pan over high heat and mix everything. Let it boil. After boiling point let it cook for about 10mns. After that slide the jam with a spoon and check if there's a trail of watery juice flowing freely. If that's the case let it cook until you have evaporated enough water. You'll know your jam is ready when after sliding the jam on the pan the trail tends to stick and doesn't flow freely.
