I'm sure to pick up extra bags of cranberries for the freezer in the fall so that I can make this lovely, delicious jam year-round. My kids love it on peanut butter sandwiches. Jars of this pretty ruby-colored jam also make great gifts. -Marjilee Booth, Chino Hills, California

Honey Cran-Raspberry Pie image

This cranberry raspberry pie is my son Michael's recipe. It was passed down to him when he got married in 2002. The pie is quite tart, but it pairs well with a favorite vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. —Beverly Batty, Forest Lake, Minnesota

RASPBERRY-HONEY SHMEAR



Raspberry-Honey Shmear image

Nothing is better on a bagel that a thick layer of this fruity shmear. I like mine a bit chunky so that you get random bursts of tangy raspberry flavor mixed in with the cream cheese and sweet honey. If you prefer it smoother, place all ingredients into a mini food chopper or processor and blend until desired consistency. If you like things a little sweeter, add another tablespoon of honey.

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cut into chunks

RASPBERRY FRUIT SPREAD WITHOUT PECTIN



Raspberry Fruit Spread without Pectin image

I was experimenting with making jam without pectin and it turned out really yummy. You need to cook the raspberries for a pretty long time until they fall apart.

Time 9h

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound fresh raspberries
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan and mix well. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Inspect 3 jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  • Slowly bring raspberry mixture to a boil and simmer uncovered over medium heat until the mixture is no longer liquid, 40 minutes to 1 hour. Stir every few minutes and skim off any foam with a ladle or a large spoon.
  • Ladle raspberry jam immediately into the prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any spills. Top with lids and tightly screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart. Let rest for 24 hours without moving the jars. Gently press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.

PECAN CRANBERRY SPREAD



Pecan Cranberry Spread image

I find any excuse possible to serve this. Great around the holidays but worthy of being made all year round. It is the dish I am most often asked to bring to a gathering requiring finger foods or appetizers. Really good on Townhouse Wheat Crackers. If I don't have any orange juice concentrate, I use just enough fresh squeezed juice to make it the right consistency and the zest from the orange for more flavor. *PLEASE NOTE!!* You REALLY need to make this ahead of time! The flavors must blend for it to taste good!

  • Be sure to wash the berries thoroughly before using them.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the berries with a fork or potato masher.
  • If you want a smoother spread, you can strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
  • Store the spread in a clean jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Cran-raspberry-honey spread is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, pancakes, waffles, or yogurt. It can also be used as a glaze for chicken or fish, or as a dip for fruit or crackers. This spread is a great way to use up fresh berries, and it's also a healthy and affordable alternative to store-bought jams and jellies.
