List of Ingredients
4 cups coarsely-chopped apricots
1/2 cup chopped orange
3/4 cup water
2 tbl lemon juice
3 1/2 cups sugar
Recipe
Prepare home canning jars and lids according to manufacturer's instructions. Cook apricots and orange in water until tender. Press through a sieve or food mill.
Combine apricot and orange pulp, lemon juice and sugar in a large saucepot. Cook until thick enough to round up on a spoon. As mixture thickens, stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Ladle hot butter into hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Adjust two-piece caps. Process 10 minutes in a boiling-water canner.
This recipe yields about 3 half-pints.
