FREEZER JAM



Freezer Jam image

This is a great way to make jam because it's simple, lower in sugar, and lets the flavor of ripe fruit shine. Our method makes it a cinch to save the last of your favorite summer produce, like nectarines, plums, or berries. The key ingredient is pectin, which gives this jam the right consistency. The recipe is so easy, you might just need a second freezer!

Time 2h45m

Yield Makes 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 cups crushed plums, peaches, or nectarines (about 3 pounds fruit), any bruised spots cut away
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/3 cup (1.75 ounces) powdered, no-sugar-needed pectin

Steps:

  • Thoroughly wash, rinse, and dry seven 8-ounce plastic freezer or glass jars with tight-fitting lids. You can also use zip-top freezer bags.
  • In a medium pot, combine fruit and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high.
  • In a bowl, whisk together sugar and pectin; add to fruit, stirring until sugar mixture dissolves and fruit returns to a full rolling boil. Boil 1 minute, then remove from heat.
  • Transfer to jars or bags, leaving a 1/2-inch space on top. Seal and let sit at room temperature until jam is set, 2 to 3 hours. To store, freeze, up to 6 months. To thaw jam, transfer to the refrigerator and use within 3 weeks.
