Apricot Jam in a Bread Machine
Description
An unexpected classic apricot jam recipe in a bread machine, isn't it? Don't be surprised. I've been making jam this way ever since I got a bread machine. I highly recommend paying attention to this recipe, because you'll not only enjoy the most wonderful flavor but also save a considerable amount of time. Serve at the table or store in the pantry.

1. Start making our jam with the basics — cleaning and preparing the fruit. Wash the fruit thoroughly and cut them in half, removing the pit.

3. Don't forget to check the jam's consistency periodically. In addition, if needed, you can choose extra time or a different mode. I always experiment with my kitchen appliances, and so far my experiments have turned out well.

4. For the most part I prefer to make apricot jam rather than apricot preserve in a bread machine at home. The taste does not change, but the thickness of the treat does. For jam, cut each apricot into 6–8 pieces and stir several times while cooking. When the program is finished, spoon our preserve into sterilized jars, seal them, and enjoy this delicious treat in the cold season.
