Found on a random website but think this would be good to use for all our windfall apples…
You can use any high pectin fruit to make a fruit ‘cheese’. These go perfectly with a Christmas cheeseboard.
Ingredients
- 1 kilo of apples, cored
- 450 g sugar
- teaspoon cinnamon, ground
- teaspoon nutmeg, ground
- A pinch of clove, ground
Instructions
- Chop up the apples and cook them on a low heat until soft. Process the apples in a blender or Vitamix. add the sugar and the spices and return the apple pulp to the pan. Cook on low, stirring frequently until the mixture is thick.
- Wash the jelly moulds in very hot water and pour in the spicy apple pulp. Cover with cheesecloth and leave to cool.
- Leave to dry out for a month at least. Then you can unmould them and keep wrapped in cheesecloth. They will last for years.
