To die for Apple Pie Jam!

This jam is in no way low calorie, but it is to die for!  This is my treat to myself on Saturday mornings! : )

Apple Pie Jam
Ingredients: 
6 cups peeled and diced Granny Smith Apples
(about 6-7 medium size apples)
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon  butter
3 cups white sugar
2 cups packed brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1   1.75 oz. box fruit pectin

Directions:
Cook apples, water and butter over low heat, stirring until apples are soft but not mushy.

Stir in pectin and bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly.

Add sugars and cinnamon and bring back to a boil (220 degrees use a candy thermometer), stirring constantly.

After the mixture comes to a full boil and reaches 220 degrees boil for one full minute. Remove from heat and skim off foam (if there is any).

Pour into hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space. Process jars in boiling water bath for 10 minutes.

Recipe yields: 7 - half pint jars





 Properly processed jam will keep in the pantry for up to twelve months.
