Step by Step Method
Step 1
Cut the crab apples into pieces -- no need to core or peel (the peel has the natural pectin so you don't need to add pectin). Place crab apples in large saucepan and cover with 5 cups of water and cook until soft.
Step 2
Strain the apples to extract the juice and discard all the apple solids.
Step 3
Add sugar to the juice and boil over high heat until jelly mixture sheets from a spoon. Remove from heat and skim off any foam.
Step 4
Pour mixture into sterilized pint jars. Adjust the lids and process for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath.
Step 5
Let jars cool on a cooling rack.
