Take the fuss out of jam-making with this simple recipe that can be made using a variety of apples. Siúcra’s Light Golden Brown Sugar gives the jam a buttery caramel flavour while the warm and citrusy aroma of cardamom goes very well with the apples. By using Siúcra’s Sure Set Jam Sugar you won’t have to spend all afternoon in the kitchen as the jam sets in minutes.
Enjoy served on pancakes or waffles or spread a spoonful on crackers. Alternatively add a dollop to your bowl of bircher muesli for a delicious breakfast.
