Easy jam recipe to whip up when you have some fresh blackberries!

Provided by RecipeGirl.com

Categories     Condiments

Number Of Ingredients 5

3¼ cups mashed blackberries
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
One 1.75-ounce box Sure Gel pectin ((the yellow box))
1 cup light corn syrup
4 cups granulated white sugar

Steps:

  • In a large pot (off the stove), mix the blackberries and lemon juice together, and sift in the pectin a little at a time while stirring.
  • Once all the pectin is mixed in, set a timer for 30 minutes and give the fruit a stir every 7 to 10 minutes.
  • After the 30 minutes, stir in the corn syrup and then place the pot on the stove over medium heat. Stir in the sugar a little at a time and cook for about 5 minutes until the sugar is dissolved (it should be good to go when the jam reaches 100 degrees F or you can just rub it between your fingers to make sure you don't feel any grains). If it is cooked longer it will be quite runny.
  • Pour the jam into clean plastic containers or glass jars and place in the fridge and/or freezer.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

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.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 40 g

Tips:

  • Select ripe, plump blackberries: Overripe or damaged berries can compromise the jam's quality and flavor.
  • Use a large pot: The berries will expand during cooking, so it's important to have a pot that's big enough to accommodate the expansion.
  • Stir the jam frequently: This will prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Test the jam for doneness: The jam is ready when it reaches a thick, syrupy consistency. To test, place a small amount of jam on a cold plate. If the jam wrinkles when you push your finger through it, it's ready.
  • Process the jam in a boiling water bath: This will help to seal the jars and prevent spoilage.

Conclusion:

Blackberry freezer jam is a delicious and easy way to preserve your summer berries. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious jam that you can enjoy all year long. So next time you have a bounty of blackberries, be sure to make a batch of this freezer jam. You won't be disappointed!
