To make jelly with crab apples, start by washing and chopping the fruit, then simmer them in water until soft to extract their juice. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh or cheesecloth to collect the juice, discarding the solids. Measure the juice, combine it with sugar (typically about 3/4 cup of sugar per cup of juice), and add pectin according to package instructions. Boil the mixture until it reaches the desired gel consistency, then pour it into sterilized jars and seal.

Apples are high in a natural jelling agent called pectin. Wash crab apples well and cut in half. you do not need to seed them but you can if you prefer. Do not peel, the peel will give your jelly a nice red color. Use as many apples as you can put into an 8 quart pot. 2 cups of apple cider or apple juice and two cups of granulated sugar. Boil down (full rolling boil) until apples are soft and falling apart. Allow to cool and mash well. Place pulp into a large cheesecloth bag and allow to sit suspended over a bowl for 24 hours. If you use only the juice that falls naturally you will have clear jelly. Squeezing the cheese cloth bag will result in more usable jelly but it will be cloudy. Place jelly into sterilized jars and store in freezer.
