Fruit and walnuts pair beautifully in this homemade spread. It’s wonderful on toast, pound cake…even scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients:
4 cups finely chopped peeled tart apples
4 cups finely chopped peeled ripe pears
3 clementines, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 packages (1-3/4 ounces each) powdered fruit pectin
6 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, bring the apples, pears, clementines and lemon juice to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until fruit is tender, stirring occasionally.
2. Stir in pectin. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar and cinnamon; bring to a full rolling boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
3. Remove from the heat; skim off foam. Stir in walnuts. Ladle hot mixture into hot sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles; wipe rims and adjust lids. Process for 10 minutes in a boiling-water canner. Yield: 8 half-pints.
