Super Simple Orange Marmalade - Acadiana's Thrifty Mom

This is SO EASY and tastes GREAT! You can use this on biscuits, toast, crackers, or anything else you would use preserves on 🙂 This makes a great gift idea and if you live in south Louisiana; you should be able to gather oranges for free! The oranges fresh off the tree are the best because they have a thin skin. This is how we made ours:

Gather your supplies:

2 oranges (the thinner the skin, the better)
1 cup of sugar
4 Tablespoons water
A sprinkle of cinnamon
3 quart sauce pan

Now, start cooking:

1. Cut off the ends of the oranges then cut each orange into 8 sections and remove any seeds.
2. Chop oranges (with peels) in food processor for approximately 5 minutes. You want the peel to be in tiny pieces.
3. Add oranges, sugar, water, and cinnamon to sauce pan and simmer on medium/medium low for 20 minutes.
4. Allow to cool then add to decorative container and decorate as desired!

VOILA! You’re done! This is super delicious 😀
