Pineapple Habanero Pepper Jelly ### Ingredients:

1 cup crushed pineapple (fresh or canned, well-drained)
2-4 habanero peppers (adjust based on desired heat, seeds removed and finely chopped)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 package (1.75 oz) fruit pectin (like Sure-Jell)
1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

In a medium saucepan, combine the crushed pineapple and chopped habanero peppers. Add the apple cider vinegar and salt. Stir well.
Stir in the sugar and let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Add the fruit pectin, and continue to stir for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture is well combined.
Allow the mixture to reach a rolling boil for 1 full minute while continuing to stir. Remove from heat.
Carefully ladle the hot jelly into sterilized half-pint jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace. Wipe the rims clean with a damp cloth to ensure a good seal.
Seal the jars with lids and process them in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure preservation.
Let the jars cool at room temperature. Once cooled, check the seals. If the lid pops back when pressed, it didn’t seal properly and should be refrigerated and used within a few weeks.
Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place for up to one year. Enjoy your homemade Pineapple Habanero Pepper Jelly on cheese platters, sandwiches, or as a spicy topping!
