Hope everyone is enjoying the summer and it is hard to believe that it is almost a month since the kids started vacation. While looking for recipes to finish up the last batch of strawberries in the fridge, I stumbled upon this recipe and I was surprised to see apple as an ingredient. Pectin is normally used in jelly and jams to help them set and apple has it naturally. The resulting jam was of the right consistency and it took minutes to put together. Off to the recipe. Recipe from here.
