There’s nothing more scrumptious than a slice of hot, buttered toast slathered with chunky apricot jam. Pure bliss. This recipe has only three ingredients and couldn’t be any easier.
1. Mix apricot slices and sugar in a large, non-corrosive bowl and leave in a cool, dark space for 8–12 hours.

2. Transfer the mixture to a large pot, add the lemon juice, and bring to a boil. Boil hard until starting to set (6–8 minutes).
3. To test, spoon a small amount onto a dry plate. After a minute, push your finger through the jam; if a skin has formed, the jam is ready.
4. Decant the jam into sterilised jars and seal with lids. Label the jars when cool and store in the pantry.
5. Keep opened jars in the fridge.
