- Wash the apples and pears without peeling them, then cut them into small cubes. Place them in a large saucepan, add 2 glasses of water and cook covered for around thirty minutes.
- When the fruits are well cooked, remove them from the heat and pass them through a sieve to collect the juice. Cooked fruit can be used as a compote for a filling or a pie.
- In a jam bowl, mix the ingredients: juice, zest, dried fruits (except nuts and almonds) cut into small pieces, add cinnamon and brown sugar then bring to the boil and cook for 10 minutes at a low simmer without stopping to mix.
- Add the walnuts and crushed almonds to this Christmas recipe and continue cooking for 10 minutes.
- Check the cooking of this fruit jam by carrying out the cold plate test, immediately put it in jars, close them and turn them over for 1 minute, then put them back upright to let them cool.
