Washed Sparkleberries (It will never cease to amuse me that they're really called that, it's the absolute best thing ever!) in a pot with two Macoun apples, and a hint of vanilla bean, pour some sugar on it baby, and cook down to mush. Definitely strain, as those teeny stems are a pain to pluck individually and Sparkleberries do have a pretty large seed for the size of berry. The leftover mash, I'm going to use and infuse a cider I'll make out of the rest of the apples I picked!

It made a FANTASTIC spread cooked down with two Macoun apples, and just a hint of vanilla bean. #kitchenwitch #sparkleberry #fairyfood #fallmagic #maine #apples #jam #fromscratch

The trees produce a lot of small, red fruit with light speckles, or "sparkles" and taste of citrus, or pomegranate. Each tree is actually different! They can be eaten raw, but are often cooked down into jams, and I'll be making some apple cider with them!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! SPARKLEBERRY SEASON!
