Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1 pound bacon, finely chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon brewed coffee (hot or cold, doesn't matter)
  • 1/2 cup apple juice
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: In a medium pot, cook the bacon until nicely browned. Remove from pot, saving about 2 tbsp bacon fat.

  • Step 2: In the reserved bacon fat, cook the onions over medium heat until translucent. Add garlic and cook about a minute until fragrant.

  • Step 3: Add bacon back to the pot. Add remaining ingredients.

  • Step 4: Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 30-40 minutes until thickened and syrupy (there shouldn't be a lot of liquid remaining).

  • Step 5: In a mini food processor, puree about 1/2 cup of the jam, then combine with the rest. This will give it more of a jam consistency.

  • Step 6: Store in an airtight container. Makes about 2 cups of jam.
