Remove stems, cut into quarters - leave on skin & included the core. - Just cover with water - not too much.Cook up until Apples are soft, stirring a few times..
Drain into muslin - an old clean tea towel will do the trick.
You need to let the juice drip out - preferably overnight. Do not be tempted to squeeze the bag as this will make your jelly go cloudy.

Yum, doesn't this look tasty! I love to make jam but have never tried putting fruit in muslin and letting the juice drip out for jelly. Your finished product looks beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Lynn
I tell you it is sooo much FUN. And all the family is involved from picking the crab apples to helping hang it up to drip. The best part is eating it it's soo good on warm freshly made bread..
Love Leanne
