Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized (about 1.5 lbs) Apples
- 1 medium (finely chopped) Onion
- 0.5 cups Brown Sugar
- 0.5 cups Apple Cider Vinegar
- 0.25 cups Water
- 1 (seeded and finely chopped) Jalapeño Pepper
- 0.25 cups Dried Cranberries
- 1 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground Ginger
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground Allspice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
Instructions
Peel, core, and dice the apples into small cubes. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the jalapeño and cook for an additional 1 minute to release its flavor.
Add the diced apples, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and water to the saucepan. Stir to combine.
Mix in the cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the spices.
Add the dried cranberries for an extra layer of sweetness and texture.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 30-35 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Cook until the apples are soft, and the mixture has thickened to a jam-like consistency.
Remove the pan from the heat and let the chutney cool to room temperature.
Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve warm or chilled as desired.
