Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds cherries pitted and diced
  • 2 cups minced yellow onion about 1 large
  • 2 1/2 cups light brown sugar
  • 2 cups apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup golden raisins
  • 1 cup dried sweet cherries
  • 2 lemon zested and juiced
  • 3 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons mustard seed
  • 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Prepare a canning pot and 5 pint jars (or a combination of pints and half pints that hold a total of 10 cups of product).
  • Combine all ingredients in a large pot, stir to combine, and bring to a vigorous boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring often, until the mixture has reduced and developed a thick, spreadable consistency, about 50-60 minutes.
  • When the chutney is finished cooking, remove the pot from the heat. Ladle the chutney into the prepared jars, leaving 1/2 inch of headspace. Wipe the rims, apply the lids and rings, and process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes.
