This is a simple recipe, for a jam with apples and oranges (peel).

preparation

I take 1 kg of whole oranges and 1 kg of apples, throw everything diced and cleaned in the pot and cook until everything is soft (about 20 - 25 minutes). In the meantime, my kitchen smells so wonderfully of oranges. Then I add 1 kg of normal sugar and puree the fruit with the blender. But I do not purée too long and too fine, because I like it when the orange pieces are still visible. Then put everything in glasses and turn the glasses upside down. Finished!

The acid in the oranges prevents the apples from getting dark and the jam gets a great orange color. Because of the apples, the jam gets the consistency of applesauce, so it does not need gelling sugar, but normal sugar (1 kilo of sugar to 2 kilos of fruit).

But you can only cook the same with orange peel and apples, if you like it bitterly. I also love this bitter-sweet taste, but my husband thinks that, unfortunately too bitter. That's why I take as a compromise whole oranges, so it is sweeter with the juice. Good Appetite!
