Winter is just around the corner, which means that it's time to bask in a cup of tea with a delicious biscuit, or jam. Standard strawberry, apricot and raspberry jam is no surprise, so we suggest you try an innovative recipe for jam from pumpkin with citrus.
Pumpkin jam with orange and cinnamon
Ingredients:
- pumpkin - 500 g;
- sugar - 250 g;
- orange - 1 piece;
- cinnamon - 1/2 sticks.
Preparation
Pumpkin is cleaned of seeds and peel, and cut into small cubes. Place the pumpkin slices in a thick-walled pan and cover with sugar, leave for 2 hours. During this time the pumpkin will have time to give enough liquid, in which it will then be cooked.
We cut an orange into very small pieces and add it to the pumpkin together with a cinnamon stick.
We put the pan on the fire and bring its contents to a boil over medium heat, boil the future jam, stirring constantly, until more of the liquid evaporates, and the pieces of pumpkin will not start to boil.
Now jam can be poured into cans, or consumed immediately.
If you do not like cinnamon, then replace it with a couple of anise stars.

Half an apple rubbed on a grater, and the second half cut into cubes. Add the apples to the pumpkin and continue the quenching without the lid. As soon as apples and pumpkin become soft, add sugar, bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat and stew for 40 minutes, until most of the liquid is evaporated and the mixture thickens.

Pumpkin jam with orange in a multivark
Despite all the comfort and time savings that the multivarker gave us, it's not very convenient to cook jam in it. Firstly, with the help of the kitchen worker, a relatively small amount of goodies is obtained (about 1/4 of the total volume), and secondly, the multivariate does not prepare it on its own, since jam should be stirred from time to time.
Ingredients:
- pumpkin - 500 g;
- orange - 2 pieces;
- sugar - 250 g.
Preparation
Pumpkin is cleaned and sliced, put in a bowl multivarka and fall asleep with sugar. After the pumpkin and sent pieces of orange, from which you must first remove the seeds, you can leave the peel. Now turn on the "Baking" mode and set the time to 60 minutes.
During cooking, it is necessary to remove the steam valve in order to have unhindered access to the contents of the bowl.
Also, do not forget to measure exactly 1/4 of the volume of ingredients from the total volume of the multivark, otherwise the jam will boil away. In the delicacy of a pumpkin with oranges, you can also add spices to taste.
