Spiced Apple Cider Jelly

Calling all jelly and jam lovers!

Do you wish there was a spiced jelly to match your seasonal bread?

Try this perfectly Spiced Apple Cider Jelly made with fresh apples, sugar, and honey for that sweet and tart flavor you crave on your breakfast toast. 

Ingredients: 

12 Gala Jazz or Granny Smith apples, skinned, washed, diced, seeds removed

1 ½ cups sugar

1 Tbsp. honey

1 Tbsp. lemon juice

3 Tbsp. cornstarch

1 Tbsp. water, up to 2 if corn starch slurry is too thick to add to jelly

Instructions: 

Step 1: Put the diced apples in the Instant Pot

Step 2: Add sugar, honey, and lemon juice to apples, and let the mixture sit for 30 minutes

Step 3: Stir the mixture, and close the lid on the Instant Pot until it beeps and locks.

Step 4: Make sure the pressure valve is on ‘VENTING’ and press the Manual button, and set the time for 1 minute.

Step 5: Manually Release Pressure after cooking is done.

Step 6: Open the lid and stir the Jelly

Step 7: Remove from the Instant Pot and strain the apples with a cheesecloth and collect the apple juice.

Step 8: Don’t press the apples too much because that can cloud the apple juice. We want the jelly to look clear.

Step 9: Place the apple juice back into the Instant pot

Step 10: In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with the water until completely blended, and pour into the Jelly and stir.

Step 11: Turn the Instant Pot to ‘SAUTE’ and boil the Jelly, stirring constantly.

Step 12: When the Jelly begins to boil, turn off the Instant Pot, and continue to stir until the Jelly begins to thicken.

Step 13: Allow Jelly to cool When Jelly begins to cool, pour into desired containers

Step 14: Place in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks, or freeze for up to 12 months

Step 15: Remove from the freezer 15 minutes before using, and immediately return any unused portion to the freezer. Enjoy

Using your Instant Pot saves you time and creates the smooth texture you want from your jelly.
