Instructions:

  1. Prepare Canning Equipment:

    • Fill a boiling water canner with water.
    • Place 5 clean 1-cup mason jars in the canner.
    • Boil for 10 minutes to sterilize.
    • In another saucepan, boil Snap Lids for 5 minutes to soften sealing compound.
  2. Prepare Apricot Mixture:

    • In a saucepan, combine apricots, 1-1/2 cups water, and 1 cup of orange juice.
    • Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes.
  3. Puree Apricots:

    • Transfer the apricot mixture to a food processor or blender and puree.
    • Place the puree in a glass measuring cup and add water to measure 4 1/2 cups in total.
  4. Cooking the Jam:

    • In a large deep stainless steel saucepan, combine the apricot puree, lemon juice, and the remaining 1 cup of orange juice.
    • Gradually stir Bernardin No Sugar Needed Fruit Pectin into the fruit mixture, ensuring not to add all the pectin at once.
    • Stir constantly and bring to a full rolling boil.
    • Boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  5. Sweeten and Prepare Jars:

    • Remove the saucepan from heat.
    • Dissolve Equal in 1/2 cup water and add it to the fruit mixture.
    • Stir the mixture for a full 2 minutes.
    • Ladle the jam into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch of headspace.
  6. Canning Process:

    • Use a rubber spatula to remove air bubbles and readjust the headspace to 1/4 inch.
    • Wipe the jar rims to remove any stickiness.
    • Center a Snap Lid on each jar and apply the screw bands until fingertip tight.
    • Place the jars in the canner and cover.
    • Bring the water back to a boil and process (boil) for 5 minutes.
  7. Final Steps:

    • Remove the jars from the canner and allow them to cool undisturbed for 24 hours.
    • Check the jar seals (sealed lids should curve downward).
    • Any jars that have not sealed properly should be stored in the fridge and consumed promptly.
