    Smelled great, got rid of some cooking apples, and my husband loved it! I'll be making it again come Christmas.

    Don't know if this will help but my Apple Chutney recipe says it has a shelf life of one year but it doesn't say how long it will last once opened... in my experience it's not in the fridge for very long anyway :)

    Made double the quantities as in the recipe as we had a lot of Bramleys to use up. It seemed like a lot of sugar but decided to stick to the basic recipe to start with as have just made chutney for thr first time this week. Like others who have left a comment it took much longer to thicken. I left it simmering for nearly 2 hours and it could even be left for longer. I have yet to taste it and will post about that when I do.

    Like others, 2 1/2 hours to make. I've filled steralised jars, but I had a bit left over after all the jars were full. I put it in a bowl and covered it with cling fim in the fridge. Does anyone know how long this will last for?

    How long do you leave it in the jars to mature?.
