Begin by thoroughly washing the apples under cool water to remove any dirt or residue.
Peel the apples using a vegetable peeler and core them using an apple corer or a sharp knife. Cut the apples into small chunks.
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the apple chunks with 0.5 cup of water.
Add the fresh lemon juice to the pot, ensuring to catch any seeds.
Stir in the honey and ground cinnamon, mixing all ingredients well.
Place the saucepan over medium heat, allowing the mixture to come to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer uncovered. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 30-40 minutes, or until the apples are soft.
Use a potato masher or an immersion blender to break down the apple chunks into a finer consistency. For a smoother jam, continue to blend until your desired texture is reached.
Once the jam has thickened to your preferred consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Transfer the jam into sterilized jars, leaving a half-inch space at the top, and seal them tightly.
Allow the apple jam to cool to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator.
The jam can be kept in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or frozen for longer storage.
