Cranberry Walnut Jelly

A delightful holiday spread
and wonderfully delicious gift!

Cranberry Walnut Jelly
5 c. cranberries
2 c. water
1/2 c. chopped walnuts
4 1/2 c. sugar
1 box Pectin (or 6 Tbsp if bought in bulk)

Wash your jars in hot soapy water, rinse well.  Lay out on a cookie sheet and place in warmed oven. (this dries them and protects them from contaminants)

Place cranberries and water in a large pan.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.  Remove from heat.

Stir in walnuts.  Stir in pectin.  Measure sugar into a separate bowl and set aside.

Bring to a rolling boil while stirring constantly.  Quickly stir in all the sugar. Return to a full rolling boil and boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.  Remove from heat.  Skim off any foam with a metal spoon (I didn’t have any).

Ladle quickly into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. *Invert jars 5 minutes, then turn upright. After jars are cool, check seals. *OR follow water bath method recommended by USDA.

See how simple that was?
And the taste…oh honey, you’ll just have to make some and try it for yourself!
