Directions
Wash, hull and half the strawberries.
Peel, core and quarter the apples. Then cut quarters into thin slices.
Put all the ingredients, except the sugar, into a large pot.
Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer until the fruit is tender.
Add warmed sugar and stir until it has dissolved. Increase heat, stirring frequently and cook until setting point is reached.
Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
Pour into warm sterile jars and seal.
Nutrition facts are kinda screwy. Serving size 259grams??? That seems a bit high. Anyone know what the facts would be for 1 tsp serving size???

We've adjusted the serving size to a more reasonable portion size. 1 tsp sounds awfully small for a single serving, 1 tablespoon might be more reasonable.
about 12 years agoWhen you have as many food allergies as I do it's worth a few extra calories! You can curve the calories by using demerdemerera sugar and fresh fruit that you pick and freeze. Less chemicals that way too!
almost 6 years ago2 pounds of suger????
over 5 years agoIm using 1 and thats already quite sweet. The pectine in the apple and lemon juice will help set the jam and you wont get the crazy caramel taste instead of fruit.
Too much sugar... suggest zero sugar...
over 4 years agoToo much sugar... suggest zero sugar... or little honey to add
over 4 years agoThat's a lot of sugar I added one cup was plenty
almost 3 years agoWhat is “warmed sugar “?
almost 3 years agoWarm the sugar in the oven, self explanatory I would have thought!
Why do we need to warm the sugar as in how does it affect the process? How long do you keep it in the oven and at what temperature?
Jam recipes are usually around a pound of fruit to a pound of sugar anyway but I agree sometimes too much sugar will overpower the strawberries .

Why two cups of water ??? After well over an hour mine still never reached setting point. Wish i had used no.2 recipe. No water. Apples and strawberries dont need it.
