Apple Spread

Recipe by: Suzanne

Be the first to review it!

This is an apple spread recipe that was passed down to me. It's actually more of a jam but it is always delicious spread on toast, muffins or crumpets. If you don't want it to be tangy, you can replace the cider vinegar with water.

This is great to make when apples are abundant. Serve as a topping on pancakes, waffles or ice cream. It makes a heavenly yoghurt pot, topped with crunchy muesli. The preserves can also be used to fill puff pastry parcels or a tart.

Cumquats are entirely edible when ripe, rind and all. This is a delicious compote that makes a special addition to pancakes, french toast, trifles, or even topped on ice cream.

Cumquat Jam

Recipe by: lolli_d

Be the first to review it!

More so a marmalade, as you have those lovely, sticky rind pieces that fold themselves across your hot buttered toast. It takes time to slice the cumquats as they're small, ensure you've a few spare hours! You don't want the seeds in the jam, so using a food prosessor is a no-no. The extra seeds will be used help set the jam, in a seperate bag.
