Time 1h10m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups husked and pitted ground cherries
2 cups white sugar
1 lemon, zested, or to taste
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
1 (3 ounce) package lemon-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®)

Steps:

  • Place ground cherries in a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a large saucepan.
  • Stir sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice into the cherries. Bring to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, until ground cherries soften, about 15 minutes. Add lemon gelatin; stir until dissolved. Skim any foam off the top of the jam with a slotted spoon.
  • Pour jam into two 8-ounce freezer-safe containers. Let stand until thickened and set, about 30 minutes. Transfer to the freezer.
