RASPBERRY & APPLE JAM

Raspberry & Apple Jam image

This jam recipe is very easy to make and delicious! I like using apple with raspberries. I use pectin because it cuts down the cooking time and sugar significantly and makes the jam nice and thick. This recipe makes nine 8oz. jars. You can cut this recipe in half for a smaller batch. Enjoy!

Time 45m

Yield 9 8 oz. jars

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

6 1/2 cups raspberries (6 1/2 cups mashed raspberry equals 12 pints or approximately 2 pounds)
2 1/2 cups apples (peeled and diced)
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 teaspoons dry pectin (follow directions on your Pectin box)

Steps:

Wash, remove stems, and mash berries.
Dice apples into tiny pieces - you can leave skins on, but I peel them.
Place apples and lemon juice in large pan on medium heat.
Cook apples for 5 minutes until soft.
Add mashed berries and cook until it boils, stirring a few times.
Let fruit boil for 2-3 minutes.
In separate bowl, combine sugar and pectin and stir together.
Add sugar/pectin mixture into boiling fruit and stir.
Boil (high boil) for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and fill jars to 1/4" of top. (Recipe makes nine 8oz. jars).
Wipe rims clean and screw on 2-piece lids.
Let jars cool. You will hear a "pop" sound once sealed. You do not have to put jars in boiling water. Just let cool on your kitchen counter.

RASPBERRY APPLE HONEY JAM

This recipe is just like my regular raspberry/apple jam but with the addition of honey and a hint of vanilla. You can omit the vanilla if you wish, but it's such a small amount all it does is bring out the other flavors. This recipe is a small batch, makes 6 half pint jars. You can easily double this recipe. Enjoy!

Tips:

Choose the right apples: Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well in jam and provide a nice balance to the sweetness of the raspberries.
Use fresh or frozen raspberries: If using fresh raspberries, be sure to rinse and dry them thoroughly before using. Frozen raspberries can be used without thawing.
Add pectin if needed: If you want a thicker jam, you can add commercial pectin. Follow the package directions for how much to use.
Cook the jam until it reaches the desired consistency: A candy thermometer is a helpful tool for determining when the jam is done. The jam should reach a temperature of 220 degrees Fahrenheit (105 degrees Celsius) for a thick jam or 212 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Celsius) for a softer jam.
Canning the jam is optional: If you want to store the jam for longer than a few weeks, you can can it in jars. Be sure to follow proper canning procedures to ensure that the jam is safe to eat.

Conclusion:

Raspberry apple jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, scones, waffles, or pancakes. It can also be used as a filling for pies, tarts, and cookies. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make your own homemade raspberry apple jam that is sure to impress your family and friends.
