Onion Apple Jam
Adapted from Strive for Five.
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
½ tsp (2 mL) Butter
2 lbs (1 kg) Apples
1 tsp (5 mL) Lemon juice
¼ Cup (60 mL) All-purpose flour
¼ Cup (60 mL) Brown sugar, lightly packed
½ tsp (2 mL) Salt
1 lb (454 g) Onions
½ Cup (125 mL) Apple juice
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F
Lightly grease an 8”x8” pan with butter.
Wash the apples. Use an apple corer to core each apple. Slice the apples into thin rings and sprinkle with the lemon juice to prevent discolouration.
Combine the flour, brown sugar, and salt. Sprinkle over the apples and toss gently to coat.
Slice the onions and layer with the seasoned apples in the pan. Pour the apple juice over the onions and apples.
Cover and bake for 45–60 minutes. Uncover for the last 5 minutes to brown lightly.
Serve with any pork, chicken, or beef menu item. This compote also adds zip to a sandwich, wrap, or hamburger.
