Recipe: Apple Cinnamon Freezer Jelly and re: melting jelly

It may very well lose it's gel if you melt it. If so, you would have syrup that you could use on things if you want to try it. Here is an easy recipe for a freezer jelly

APPLE CINNAMON JELLY

Delicious on toast or scones. It tastes like youve worked for hours, but this jelly is extra easy, starting with apple juice.

3 cups Mott's Apple Juice
5 cups sugar
2 Tbs lemon juice
2 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 cup water
1 (1.75 oz) package dry fruit pectin

Wash and dry 1- or 2-cup glass jars or decorative containers to accommodate 5 to 6 cups liquid. Set aside. Combine all ingredients except pectin in large bowl. Stir several minutes until sugar is dissolved.

Combine pectin with 3/4 cup water in small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil; boil 1 minute. Stir pectin mixture into apple juice mixture, stirring until thoroughly blended.

Ladle mixture into prepared containers and cover. Let sit at room temperature 24 hours until set. Store in refrigerator up to 3 months or in freezer for up to 1 year.

Makes about 6 cups jelly.
