Bring the mixture to the boil, and then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 50 minutes. While stirring regularly, until the apples and onions are tender, and the mixture has thickened and no watery juice remains.

Next, add the cranberries and cook for a further 10 minutes.

Finally, spoon the hot chutney into sterilised jars and seal.
