  • Wash the oranges and tejocotes.
  • Boil the tejocotes with the water; once they are soft, mash them until a pulp forms, and use a strainer to remove the seeds and reserve the pulp.
  • Peel the oranges and remove the pure pulp, avoiding the white part; it should be left as supremes.
  • Remove the peel from 5 oranges, ensuring that no white part remains, and cut them into strips.
  • In a pot over the heat, combine the orange supremes with the strips of orange, cinnamon, and the kilogram of sugar.
  • Once it is well cooked and the flavors and aromas have been released, incorporate the tejocote pulp and stir; this will allow the pectin to act and give more consistency to the jam. Add the vanilla pod and keep on the heat until it releases its aromas.
  • Let cool and jar.
