Ingredients

• 4 cups Apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
• 1 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional, for added flavor)

Directions

Step 1

Place the peeled, cored, and chopped apples into a large saucepan.

Step 2

Add the water, apple cider vinegar, and ground cinnamon to the saucepan and stir to combine so the apples are coated evenly.

Step 3

Turn the heat to medium and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Once it begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan with a lid. Let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and begin to break apart.

Step 5

Remove the lid and add the fresh lemon juice and vanilla extract (if using). Stir the mixture well and use a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon to further break down the apples to your desired consistency.

Step 6

Continue to simmer the uncovered mixture for an additional 10-15 minutes, allowing the excess water to evaporate and the jam to thicken.

Step 7

Once thickened to your liking, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 8

Transfer the apple jam into clean, sterilized jars and let them cool completely before sealing and refrigerating.

Step 9

Store the apple jam in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy this healthy, sugar-free jam as a spread on Whole30-approved toast, as a topping for pork, or mixed into your favorite breakfast.
