Hi all,
I have been given a big bag of bramley apples and I want to make a christmas gift with them...
I was thinking apple and cinnamon curd but lots of places say this will only stay fresh for a few weeks and it's a while till xmas yet.
Any other ideas or recipes for apple curd that will keep longer?

I *think* you could freeze the apples if you cooked them, and then just defrost to use in your recipe closer to the time.Trust me - I'm NOT a doctor!0

I've never head of apple curd but it sounds delectable! Would you share this recipe please?0

I just found this recipe.
Do you think this would thicken up like ordinary apple curd or still be a bit thin?? I presume it would keep longer than the ordinary stuff without butter and eggs?0 -
Oh and I forgot to ask, what kind of oil would be best? sunflower?0

Do you have any other fruit? I you do, you could make jam or jelly which will last longer.0

Hi Kevie
The recipe uses vegetable oil, but I have made it with sunflower oil.

Hi it's as thick as lemon curd. Allegra had some which lasted for 6 weeks because she bottled it into sterilised jars.
It can also be frozen (not in glass jars!)
