Spiced Apple Rounds

Updated: Nov 30



Spiced apple rounds are interesting because they are a fruit but it is almost like they are a sweet pickle. They look so pretty in their jar with the whole cloves and a cinnamon stick. These not only look good on your pantry shelf, but they are also a side dish of their own. I found a similar recipe to this when I was looking for something new to make with my apples. It is nice to mix things up a bit in my pantry.

  • Once your apples have completed the appropriate time in the boiling water bath canner, turn off the heat and allow them to cool for 5 minutes. Then, take them out and sit them on the counter for 12-24 hours to cool and completely seal.

  • After they have sealed well, remove the rings and wash the threads and outside of the jars.

  • If your jar of Apples did not seal, place them in the fridge and use them immediately. Store the sealed jars in your cool, dry pantry to enjoy for the next 1-3 years. After three years the nutritional value of canned food diminishes.
