Preserves Cranberry Apple Chutney
Cranberry Apple Chutney

Like cranberries with your turkey but dislike that "stuff in a can"?  There is still just enough time to make your own for Christmas dinner!

~ Be forewarned! ~

This recipe makes SIX jars of cranberry sauce - I recommend cutting the ingredients in half ... unless you have an army eating at your house this Christmas Day!!

Cranberry Apple Chutney
2 medium apples, chopped
1 lemon, peeled and quartered
1 bag (12 oz / 340 g) thawed cranberries
1 cup raisins
4 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup brandy
1 box powdered fruit pectin
Set the bag of frozen cranberries on the counter to thaw. Peel and coarsely chop the apples and lemon. Try and chop the raisins a little bit too!  Then put apples, lemon and cranberries into food processor / chopper, a few at a time, until coarsely chopped. Remove and place in a large mixing bowl.  Add the chopped raisins. Then add all the sugar and mix thoroughly until completely mixed. Let stand for 10 minutes.

In a small saucepan, mix water, brandy and pectin. Bring to a boil and boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and pour over the fruit and sugar. Continue stirring for another 3 minutes until well mixed but don't worry if a few fruit pectin crystals remain.

Pour into sterilized jars and seal tightly. Let stand at room temperature for 24 hours. Will store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or freeze to keep longer.

It's Christmas Eve and I know you have lots to do ... but since you are probably in the kitchen anyway, you might have just enough time to whip up a batch of fresh Cranberry Apple Chutney to accompany the Christmas turkey this year .. and impress the heck out of folks!

Disclaimer: Many of the items sold are vintage or pre-loved. Quality of vintage items vary with the manufacturing methods available at the time of production. They are not made to current standards of manufacturing ... and in my opinion, that is usually a good thing! They tend to be higher quality, last longer and include more attention to detail than today's products. However, safety standards do change over time, items do deteriorate with age, and it is up to the customer to decide how they will use each product.
