Instructions
- 1 Inspect 2 quart-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until apple pickles ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
- 2 Combine water, vinegar, sugar, allspice berries, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.
- 3 Meanwhile, toss apples with lemon juice in a bowl; pack into hot, sterilized jars.
- 4 Pour boiling sugar syrup over apples, filling to within ¼ inch of tops. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly. Set jars aside at room temperature until cool, about 2 hours.
- 5 Press centers of lids with a finger to ensure lids do not move up or down. Place jars in the refrigerator; wait before opening for at least 1 week.
