4 1/2 cups granulated sugar

1 pound Granny Smith apples
1 cup water
cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1
Wash 5 or 6 half-pint jars and fill with hot water until needed. Prepare lids as manufacturer directs

Measure sugars into a medium bowl and set aside.
3
Peel, core and finely chop enough apples to measure 2 cups. Place in large saucepan with water, lemon juice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir in pectin.
