Raisin apple chutney from the side

This apple chutney is like a chunky applesauce, fortified with raisins and spices. Great for using up soft or bruised apples, though pears work great, too. Enjoy it on its own, with a crisp type topping for dessert or even atop some pork chops or chicken. It’s pretty quick and low effort too! Depending on which variety of apples you’re using it may be on the sweet or tart side, if you’re using it as a condiment for meat it may benefit from additional acid, like a splash of vinegar.

    Hi
    How long would you say the chutney could be stored in a fridge?

      Hi Kirsty – I would imagine about 5 days.
