To offset the cranberry tartness, I added some sweet mango, and boosted the flavorwith orange juice. This recipe went together quickly

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
3 cups chopped, ripe mango
1 1/2 cups orange juice
5 3/4 cups granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to a large Dutch oven or other cooking pot.
  • Rub butter along the inside pot lip. This will reduce the chance of the mixture boiling over!
  • Slowly bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat,stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Turn the heat up a little and cook rapidly, stirring often to prevent sticking, until the jam reaches the gelling point.
  • Use the plate method to check for gelling or use a digital thermometer. Gelling is reached at 220 degrees or 8 degrees above the boiling point of water.
  • Spoon the hot jam into prepared jars, leaving ΒΌ inch headspace.
  • Wipe the lip of each jar with a damp paper towel. Top thejars with a lid and lid ring.
  • Process the jars in a water bath canner for 15 minutes.Remove and let cool completely.
  • Makes about 7 (1/2 pint) jars.
