Description

Bread and butter pickles are a popular type of pickle that are sweet and tangy. They're perfect for adding to sandwiches or burgers, or just snacking on their own. Making your own bread and butter pickles at home is easy, and it's a great way to use up any excess cucumbers from your garden or local farmer's market.

Prep Time

Cook Time

Ingredients

  • 5 cups sliced cucumbers
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups white vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

  4. Using a canning funnel, ladle the hot mixture into clean, hot canning jars, leaving 1/2 inch of headspace.
  5. Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean, damp cloth.

Recipes FAQ

Can I use pickling cucumbers for this recipe?

Recipe Tips

  • If you don't have a canning funnel, you can use a regular funnel or a ladle to transfer the hot mixture to the jars.
  • Make sure to use canning jars that are specifically designed for canning. Other types of jars may not be able to withstand the high temperatures of the canning process.
