Super simple and delicious Homemade Orange Marmalade recipe
Servings: 2 medium jars
Calories: 1095kcal
Ingredients
- 500 grams thinly sliced orange (2 large oranges)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract
- 2 ½ cups caster sugar / superfine sugar (500 grams)
- 2 cups water
Instructions
- Sterilise two medium jars (you can use the dishwasher and then allow to air dry).
- Wash and dry oranges. You'll need about 2 large or 3 medium oranges.
- Chop oranges into halves and then slice off and discard the middle pith and very ends of the orange. Remove any visible seeds, too.
- Thinly slice the halves until you have 500 grams and then place into a bowl. Add water and allow to rest overnight.
- The next day, pour oranges and water into a large saucepan and stir in the vanilla.
- Bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring every now and then.
- Take off heat, add sugar and stir before returning to heat.
- Bring to the boil again and then adjust so the mixture is simmering at a medium pace, not furiously and not gently.
- Allow to simmer for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. You'll know the jam is ready when it loses its watery appearance and starts to look shiny and "grab" the bottom of the saucepan a little as you stir.
- Pour into the jars and seal with a lid.
