PUMPKIN JAM



Pumpkin Jam image

This pumpkin jam, aka. pumpkin butter, is easy to make and really delicious. I only make it when sugar pumpkins are in season so I can use fresh pumpkin. Canned pumpkin is okay too. This is a jam recipe so perfect for gifts during the holidays. Use it just like jam on toast, scones, biscuits, and with cheese and crackers. If you like a little more spice, add in more cinnamon and nutmeg!

Time 3h

Yield 8 oz. jars, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups pumpkin (use 5 small sugar pumpkins or canned)
2 cups apple cider
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3 teaspoons pectin (if using Pomona, use 2 tsp. calcium water)

Steps:

  • If using fresh pumpkin, cut in half, take out seeds, and roast until tender.
  • Once cooled, puree roasted pumpkin until smooth and then add six cups to large pan over medium/high heat.
  • Next add apple cider, lemon, vanilla, and spices. Mix well.
  • Bring mixture to light boil and reduce heat to medium temperature Stirring often so the bottom doesn't burn.
  • Place dry pectin in the 2 cups of sugar and mix.
  • Add sugar/pectin to pumpkin mixture and let cook for about an hour.
  • Remove from heat and fill jars to 1/4" of top. Recipe makes approximately 9 half-pint 8 oz. jars.
  • Wipe rims clean and screw on 2-piece lids.
  • Submerge sealed jars into hot water at 200 degrees (or boiling) for 10 minutes. You will hear a "pop" sound once jars are removed from water - that is when the lids are sealed. Let cool on your kitchen counter.

MY WELCOME TO MAINE FALL PUMPKIN JAM



My Welcome to Maine Fall Pumpkin Jam image

This recipe is for canning. I adore anything to do with pumpkin sweet or savory. Pumpkin soup, puree, pumpkin pie, pumpkin cakes and breads. This is all about New England and what a Maine fall is to me. I prefer the smaller "sugar pumpkins" or the "milk/cheese pumpkin" which has a white-ish peel. I do recommend using the fresh pumpkin. You can do anything with this from spreading on toast to replacing canned pumpkin in sweet recipes. Try on a hot scone,Mmm!

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 lbs fresh pumpkin or 5 lbs canned pumpkin

  • Cook slowly on medium heat until the mixture is thickened. Seal, and process in boiling water bath 10 minutes.
