Candied Red Hot Cinnamon Pickles

July 15, 2020 by My Farmhouse Table 86 Comments

Candied Red Hot Cinnamon Pickles

Cucumbers are the one vegetable in my garden that seem to yield well year after year. I’m not complaining. They are great to eat fresh, in this Creamy Cucumber and Onion Salad, and pickles. Lots and lots of pickles. One of our favorites to can is this recipe for Candied Red Hot Cinnamon Pickles.

This recipe was shared with us from a family friend, Joni Houston, many years ago.

I am so thankful for that!

Now if you have been on this blog before, you know I’m normally all about simple and easy recipes.

I’m going to be upfront. This recipe is not the simplest, nor easiest recipe I have ever shared.

But…. sometimes a little bit of work and effort give you deliciousness that makes the struggle all worth it!

So trust me. Follow along. Don’t run away yet.

Let’s start by me ripping off the band-aid. These pickles are a 4 day process.

Not 4 full days. But 4 days non the less.

Day 1 to soak in the pickling solution.

Day 2 and 3 to soak in the cinnamon solution.

Day 4 to can.

But really these pickles are worth the 4 day investment.

They are delicious eating and many times we add these pickles to our relish trays or crudite platters around the holidays.

Or even gift them to family friends. Maybe that is the reason they are often called Christmas pickles.

I’m just here to bring a little Christmas in July cheer.

    I have this recipe , but would like to substitute Balls pickle crunch instead of lime , but am not sure if I should omit the first step and add it to the next step (4) with the vinegar alum and water. And pickles I don’t want to go to the trouble of making the m and they don’t come out crispy

      Hi Kay. Unfortunately, I have never used Ball’s Pickle Crunch so I’m not much help in how best to use it in this recipe. I would say to read the directions on the product and use it as close as possible to those instructions.

      I believe that should work as well. Maybe read the instructions on the pickling lime to see if it has any containers it does not approve of using. I have used a glass bowl instead in the past and that worked just fine.

      Hi Judy. I personally don’t think you get much vinegar flavor in this recipe. The sugar and cinnamon candies are what is prevalent. That being said, I don’t see a reason why you couldn’t use apple cider vinegar if you wanted to.

    Hi will it hurt to leave the lime on the pickles longer then 24 hours. Also after you wash the lime off snd let them soak can you wait till the next day to cook them for the 2 hours??

      Hi Tammy. Great questions. I don’t believe it would hurt to leave the lime for longer than 24 hours, but I would probably try to not go over 36 hours. After washing the lime off and do the ice water soak, you should be able to go a little longer until cooking.

    First time making these, what is the purpose of boiling syrup 2 days and adding pickles to hot syrup? Will they be mush? Since you boil them on Day 4, then Hot Water bath them as well

      The two days of syrup is to intensify the flavor. When you re-boil the syrup do not include the pickles. They would loose their texture.

    I would like to know something about the lime bath.
    I have looked at several recipes and the thing they seem to vary on is the Pickeling Lime… recipes call for one cup and recipes call for two cups….
    Why the variance if most everything else remains the same? What would the difference be from 1 cup to 2 cups of the lime?
    Is the reason for the lime is to intensify & preserve the crunch?

    Thank ya kindly…
    I will check back tomorrow to see your reply…

    Hi – I’m in day 1 and all is well. Reading ahead to day 2, step 5, the word “simmer”, is that cooking them on the stove on low heat or are they in the crock soaking? I’ve split my content between two crock pot crocks as I don’t have one big crock. If this is a heating “simmer”, would it work to use the heating part of the crock pot? Thanks!

      Oh no! I haven’t heard that there is a shortage of cinnamon candies! I’m not sure if the hot tamales candy would work in place. It has a bit more of a gummy texture that may change the syrup. If you try it though I’d love to hear how they turned out.

    I have a question: I am on day 1. I don’t have any stone crocks, I have mine soaking in two very large plastic Tupperware bowls. My plan is on pouring the syrup directly into these bows each day. Do you think that will work? This recipe is identical to my grandma’s but she added one small bottle of red food coloring with the alum step. Your pictures look plenty red, without food coloring. Did you use any?

    Hey! I’ve made these red hot cucumbers in the past. they were awesome. My Mother-N-Law would make these out of the large yellow cucumbers that was starting to go bad. You know the ones that even the cows wouldn’t eat. It was a way of not wasting anything. They were so good. My daughter when small would have to have some everyday for her snack. We ate them with all our meals. Nice to see this recipe out there for others to enjoy. The only thing was the older red hots were easier to dissolve. I had to comment on this recipe due to it is such a wonderful recipe. I haven’t made this in a long time but seeing it again I will for my grandchildren to enjoy. Thank you!

No one I know has these, makes them and they are a crowd pleaser for sure. I’m on Day 3- how in the world will I strain the candied mixture from the cucumbers without total havoc!

    A church friend in VT always made these as gifts at Christmas. My kids loved them. She would drop some maraschino cherries in each jar, too. I think she made them with watermelon rind and big cucumbers, whichever she had on hand. I seem to remember seeing some whole cloves floating in the mixture, too. I am overrun with cukes this year, so was looking for something to do with the largest ones. This is perfect. Thanks for sharing.

      There isn’t a very good substitute, but I have been able to find the candy online (Amazon) and ordered there.

    This was my first time making these and the recipe is very on point with one exception. I actually doubled the ingredients for the liquid (the vinegar, sugar, and red hots) because I was afraid there wouldn’t be enough liquid for canning (I did the water bath method). I was spot on with doubling those ingredients. I used just about every bit of liquid after doubling it. I researched several other sites and recipes and the headspace should be 1/4” if anyone is looking for that info. Other than that one little hack with the syrup, this was a fabulous recipe! I will be making these again!

Today is the start of Lent! And if you are a Cath Today is the start of Lent!

And if you are a Catholic or just looking for a meatless option or two for the next few weeks, here is a roundup of some of my favorites that have been shared on the blog.

A friend recommended ‘The Cheat Sheet’ by @aut A friend recommended ‘The Cheat Sheet’ by @authorsarahadams to me this past week and let me say it was the perfect pre- Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day read that I couldn’t put down and ended up finishing in a day.

I don’t know if I’ve read a book where I caught myself smiling from cover to cover.

It was sweet (almost cavity inducing), WITTY, deliciously flirty, hard to put down, charming, with great comedic timing, and sexy! 

It’s a friends to lovers and fake dating tropes that is right up any Hallmark lover’s alley with a side helping of NFL. 

I found myself laughing out loud, cheering from the sidelines, and BLUSHING 😊. A touchdown in my book! 🏈

You know you’re a gardener if any of these gif’s and memes ring true to you too… Waiting for spring tests your patience that’s for sure, but buckets of blooms and produce make it worth it every time!
I’ve been a fan of Fr. Mike Schmitz and his podc I’ve been a fan of Fr. Mike Schmitz and his podcasts (Bible in a Year) for a while, but I found this quote of his the other day and it was as though I had been hit over the head with a wooden spoon. 

How often are we happy in life just to survive? I get it life is ROUGH- survival mode is sometimes all we can handle in a season, but after I read this quote I thought to myself- am I living too small of a story? Sometimes yes, I get stuck in my routines. The edges, things that push me, things that scare me- it’s uncomfortable. I doubt myself and what I’m capable of… but He doesn’t.  I’m going to cling to that truth as I continue to grow my own story. ❤️
Eucalyptus- I’ve wanted to grow it in my flower Eucalyptus- I’ve wanted to grow it in my flower garden for years- but I hear it’s  finicky and slow to germinate. You’ll fail far more than you will succeed. 

A lot like life, right?

Well, there’s one thing I’ve learned you can never grow if you don’t plant the seeds. So as we kick off a new year here’s your sign to plant the seeds in the areas of your life you want to see grow.

Faith. Relationships. Yourself. 

Sure you may fail more then you succeed, but you’ll never know if you don’t even start. ❤️ 

Thanks for sticking around for my unqualified TED talk 😜
I don’t know about you, but after the holidays a I don’t know about you, but after the holidays and all the cooking and prep that goes into them, I usually enter January wanting to be anywhere BUT my kitchen.

Every year when we get to the week of Thanksgiving Every year when we get to the week of Thanksgiving it almost feels like the Super Bowl equivalent for anyone who loves being in the kitchen and feeding a bunch of people. 

The planning. The prep. The game plan. It all comes together on Thanksgiving Day!

Just as delicious without all the turkey gravy as it is with!

“For everything there is a season.” One of my “For everything there is a season.”

One of my favorite verses in the Bible and with our first frost of the year expected tonight, I’m taking @floretflower advice and with this last bucket of blooms, savoring the beauty that is Summer on the farm. 

As much as I dislike the idea of not going out into my garden every few days to pick these stunners for bouquets to fill my vases and jars, I am happy to say goodbye to weeding, watering, and that big spider in the cosmo patch that we mutually agreed to stay out of each others way and we both will be fine 😜

Also… shoutout to one of my favorite new finds on Insta… @philipbowenmusic on the strings (seriously this dude is super talented!)

My best friend, Bree, is pregnant and expecting he My best friend, Bree, is pregnant and expecting her first child this fall. I’ve enjoyed going through this experience with her, including random texts and Snapchats of hormonal cries, nesting episodes, and of course, food cravings- which is how the baby earned the nickname of “Scoops”. 

A few weeks ago, out of the blue, I get a message that simply said- lemon bars. I guess when food cravings hit, they hit hard. So what is a best friend to do, but find my recipe for these Easy Homemade Lemon Bars.
