I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
- Place apricots, halved with seeds removed into TM bowl.
Add lemon juice if using.
Add 1 tablespoon of the sugar.
Cook 15 minutes on Varoma temperature, Speed 4 with steaming basket on top. It should not boil over but if concerned turn temperature down to 100 and cook another 5 minutes.
Fruit should now be soft.
Add remainder of sugar.
Cook another 10 minutes or until jam jells from spoon/spatula as shown in photo, on Varoma Temperature, Speed 4 with steaming basket on top.
I put my clean bottles into the oven on 100 to heat & sterilse them while jam is cooking for the last 10 minutes. Can also use boiling water.
Pour into hot sterilised bottles and seal imediately, make sure lids are tightened.

Tip
This can be made in TM31 or TM5
Thermomix Model

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Really nice and easy to do. Like others I reduced the speed to 3 and the sugar to 400g (and it's still very very sweet).
I also tried a batch with 1/2 tsp cinnamon, surprisingly nice and subtle.
Great Easy Recipe
Thanks so much for sharing this recipe. Like others, I only used 400gm sugar and love the tartness with the added lemon juice.
I have made this twice now. This time I made 6 small jars to add to some hampers I was putting together as Christmas gifts for a group of friends.
So easy and delicious!!!
I used 400g of sugar as others had suggested..
thank you for sharing.
Was looking for an easy apricot jam recipe. Found this one and gave it ago. Placed the Veroma tray I place instead of the basket.
I added all the ingredients into the bowl. Cooked for 15 mins and then 10 mins and came out perfect.
Great recipe. Followed advice to reduce sugar to 400g.
I sterilise the jars in the basket on the Thermomix while the jam is cooking. You can use the varoma basket for more space too.
My first ever jam - thanks. I made in the TM31 & it was fine
Can this jam be stored In the cupboard? It doesn't seem to be enough sugar to make it shelf stable. Thanks
I had some spray free apricots left over from Christmas & so did my son-in-law. Between both of us we had enough to make a batch of jam, so on Boxing Day I made up this recipe. I did cut back the sugar slightly & it was still amazing. So, then I made a batch of scones in my caravan oven (first time used) & I had 16 people for morning tea in our camp site to share this lovely freshly made jam & scones. Yummo!! delicious.
I will definately make this recipe again
I couldn't see any reason why it was necessary to have the Thermie rattling away at speed 4, so reduced to 3 and was fine. Used reverse so the jam had a little texture. Cut sugar down by half, and still set beautifully.
I was a bit concerned about the high speed on Varoma so turned it down to 3 and reduced the sugar to 400g. Didn't read the recipe properly and put a
lthe sugar in at once and it set perfectly. A nice easy recipe that makes a good quantity of jam.
