Disclosure: I received a Ball Jam & Jelly Maker from the company to test and review. No other compensation was given. All opinions of this product are my own.
Making jam and jelly
Add butter to the pot. Butter helps reduce foaming when making jams/jellies.
Press “jelly” button. The cook time will automatically default to 25 minutes.
Then press enter.

Note: For directions on how to make this without the jam and jelly maker, please see the second printable recipe below.
Enjoy!

- 3 cups unsweetened apple juice
- 4 tbsp pectin
- 1 tsp butter
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 1/3 cups light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- Put apple juice in a medium bowl.
- Slowly whisk in pectin to the apple juice.
- The pectin should dissolve into the apple juice.
- This is really important to ensure your jelly sets up.
- Pour juice mixture into the pot of the jam maker.
- Add butter.
- Butter helps reduce foaming when making jams/jellies.
- Press "jelly" button.
- The cook time will automatically default to 25 minutes.
- Press enter.
- Wait 4 minutes for jam maker to sound 4 short beeps indicating that it is time to add sugar.
- Whisk in white sugar and brown sugar (breaking up as many clumps as you can) while the stirrer is still running.
- The appliance will continue to automatically stir your ingredients while it cooks.
- Stay within earshot of the Jam & Jelly Maker.
- The appliance will beep again at the end of the process signaling jelly cooking is complete.
- Press cancel and unplug the appliance.
- Your jelly is ready to preserve, freeze or refrigerate.
I did whisk the mixture about 2 minutes before cooking was complete just to get rid of a few clumps of sugar. This is probably because of the brown sugar in this recipe and that tends to get clumpy easily.

- 3 cups unsweetened apple juice
- 4 tbsp classic pectin
- 1 tsp butter
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 1/3 cups light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
PLACE apple juice in an 8-quart saucepan. Gradually whisk in classic Pectin. Add butter. Bring mixture to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down, over high heat, stirring constantly.
- ADD entire measure of white and brown sugar, stirring to dissolve. Return mixture to a full rolling boil. Boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and quickly whisk in cinnamon and nutmeg. Skim foam, if necessary, from top of jelly.
Ladle hot jelly into a hot jar, leaving 1⁄4-inch headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe jar rim. Center lid on jar. Apply band, and adjust to fingertip-tight. Place jar in boiling-water canner. Repeat until all jars are filled.
Process jars 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude. Turn off heat; remove lid, and let jars stand 5 minutes. Remove jars and cool.

There is no place how to use without a jam maker any ideas
If you look at the printable recipe at the bottom of the post, you’ll see I give instructions on how to make it without the jam maker 🙂
This looks amazing, and I’d love to try it, but I can’t find the stove top directions either. Email directions?

Bonus Entry – i'd like to submit my recipe for blonde apple butter
Blonde Apple Butter
6 & 1/2 pounds apples, preferably a variety
juice of 3 lemons
1 & 1/2 cups maple sugar*
3 whole cloves, crushed (use a mortar & pestle)
2 large bay leaves**
1/2 teaspoon salt
immersion blender
pint or smaller mason jars
yield: approximately 4 pints
1. place juice of 3 lemons in a large bowl. peel, core and slice apples to 1/4 inch. toss apples in the bowl and coat with lemon juice as you go, this will prevent discoloring.
2. warm a non-reactive pot (stainless or enameled cast iron) on low. add apples, lemon juice, salt and maple sugar. stir gently until maple sugar melts and apples just start to break down.
3. add crushed cloves and whole bay leaves, turn up the heat to medium. cook, stirring occasionally as apples soften. you can add a small amount of water if needed – it depends on the apple varieties. but if you are attentive and stir more frequently as the apples break down you may not need to – i usually don’t
4. while apples are cooking down. prepare jars and lids for hot water bath processing. you do not need to sterilize the jars as they will be processed for 15 minutes.
5. when the apples have completely softened, about an hour or so in, remove bay leaves. use an immersion blender to ‘butter’ the apples.
6. fill hot jars; tap the full jar on a towel-covered counter to release air bubbles, and fill to 1/4 inch headspace. hot water bath process for 15 minutes.

Liked their page on Facebook and would love to enter my family recipe for Cuban style Guava jam.
Cuban style Guava Jam
20 medium ripe guavas
3 cups of sugar
pinch of salt
Water as needed
Wash and remove stems off the guavas.
Scoop out the centers of the guavas and put in a separate container.
Cut the guava pulp with skin into quarters and place in a blender to puree. At this point add enough water to help the mixture liquefy.
Strain the puree really well and discard the skin and pulp left behind.
At this point you can get the seeds and strain those as well, this part will require a spatula or the back of a spoon to help you get the puree through the strainer.
Combine both strained puree's with the sugar into a pot. Cook on high until it comes to a boil, stirring constantly as to avoid sticking or burning.
Add the pinch of salt and
Lower to medium heat. Continue to cook and stir occasionally for about 30 minutes.
Yields about 48oz of jam. Great for canning!
My family loves this jam with cheese wedges or over cream cheese. I have also used it to make cheesecake and to flavor cakes and frostings.
Enjoy!

I followed the recipe for your apple pie jelly recipe and it turned out great! I had some leftover juice and wanted to experiment. I followed that same apple pie jelly recipe but I precooked 1 cup cranberries until they popped. I chopped the cranberries into small pieces and added them at the beginning cycle, before adding sugar. I used the jelly cycle. I also grated about 2 -3 heaping tablespoons of orange peel and put it in with the cranberries. I used the low sugar method and put in 2 cups of sugar. I wasn't quite sure how it would turn out. I left it sit over night. Chilled it this morning and had over a bagel. I can honestly say it turned out phenomenal! It is a definite keeper! I liked it so much I have another batch going right now and this is my homemade Christmas gift to all this year. I loved it and hope you will too. I have photos of it, which the color is awesome. It just looks beautiful. I hope you all like it as much as I do! This would be great for Ball to add to their recipe list. I call it Apple-Cranberry Orange zest jam or Holiday Jam. If you try it, let me know how you like it. Mmrist@hotmail.com.

The contest seems to have closed early (it is now 6:00pm PST on November 15) but I did "like" Ball on Facebook. I made about 20 batches of jam for our fall Boutique this year and there are only 24 jars left.

I love Ball Canning on facebook and can't wait to try your Apple Pie Jelly. Thanks for including the recipe without the Ball jelly maker.
I don’t know what I am doing wrong, but I am not finding the recipe NOT using the jam/jelly maker. Can you please post it or send it to me?
Hi Julie, I apologize. It got deleted somehow. It is at the bottom of the post now 🙂
This is such a perfect recipe! And so easy! Adding the Apple Pie spices gives real pizzazz to the jelly. I have used it on breads and muffins of course, but try it on sauteed chicken tenders! to die for! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Thanks so very much Wendy!!
