How to Make
Peel the apples for the Apple Pie Jam. Remove the hull of the apples.
Chop into chunks (about 1 inch each). Add all ingredients to the Instant Pot to make the Instant Pot jam.
Stir to combine. Set the valve to "sealing".
Start the Instant Pot in manual mode for 2 minutes at high pressure. Release the pressure naturally, then carefully open the Instant Pot when the pressure has all released.
Switch the Instant Pot to saute mode. Saute for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once most of the liquid has evaporated and the Apple Pie jam has thickened, turn off the Instant Pot. Store the jam in jars and refrigerate for a week or two.

Storage
Store your jam in the fridge until you are ready to use. You can store the apple jam in mason jars or any sealable container.
I find glass jars are best as they don't take on other odors from the fridge and change up the flavor of your jam.
You can freeze this jam if you don't eat it all immediately. Store in proper containers and freezer for 3-4 months.
Then, when you are ready to eat some, place it in the fridge and allow it to thaw for 1-2 days.
Tips and Tricks For Recipe
- I recommend peeling the apples, as you get the best texture to the jam.
- You could do a variety of apples. Some green apples, yellow, and even some red ones. This will help add a lot more elements of flavor. Sweet, tangy, and a little sour if you use green apples.
- Dice apples uniformly so you can get an even cook.
Recipe FAQs
This recipe does not use pectin. I wanted to create a jam without pectin, just in case you didn't want to use any. It is a nice thick jam that is spreadable.
Use a stovetop canner, and heat the water, and prep your jars. Fill the sterilized jars with jam, and clean the top. Place in the hot water bath for 10 minutes. Carefully remove and allow the seals to pop.
Then store as directed.
Due to all the sugar, it is not recommended. You can give your dog just a little of the jam, but don't incorporate this into their daily diet.

Notes
FAQs:
- Can my dog eat Apple Pie Jam? No, this recipe is not healthy for your dog and shouldn't be fed to any dog breed. Apple Pie Jam contains sugar and butter, and other strong ingredients which can upset their stomach and lead to gastrointestinal problems in the least.
- Can my cat eat Apple Pie Jam? Desserts are not a natural part of a cat's diet. Cats are obligate carnivores, which means they can only get necessary nutrients from meat. So, eating some Apple Pie Jam can upset a cat's delicate digestive system.

How much Honey??? It says 1/2 honey - is that 1/2 cup or some other measure???
Do they need to sit for the week or 2 before consuming? Or the jam only lasts for a week or 2? Thanks!
The jam will last for two weeks since it’s not made with a preservative or canned.
Looks delicious! Can this be canned?
