Best 7 Spiced Blueberry Peach Jam Without Added Pectin Recipes

BLUEBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Place blueberries and lemon juice in a heavy-bottomed jam pot and gently bring to a simmer over low heat. Mash the blueberries to help them release their juices.
• Once the blueberries have released their juices, increase heat to medium-high, and add sugar.
• Cook the jam until it reaches gel stage, about 20 minutes. Test for gelling on a plate that's been in the freezer, or use an instant-read thermometer (220 degrees F at sea level).
• Pour finished jam into prepared jars, seal with 2 part lids. Store in the refrigerator or water bath can for a shelf-stable blueberry jam.

NANA'S SPICED PEACH JAM

Steps:

• Peel, pit and slice peaches. Chop peaches using a Chop Stir kitchen gadget, then a potato masher. Be sure to aim for small bits of peaches, as opposed to puree.
• Begin heating a large pot on the stove on medium. Add the peaches, then stir in the lemon juice, spices & pectin. Over medium-high heat, bring jam to a hard boil, meaning that it continues to boil quickly even while stirring. This takes around 20 minutes.
• As the jam heats up, measure out your sugar in a separate bowl.
• Prep your jars by washing them in very hot water, letting the water sit in the jars for 2-3 minutes so that the jars themselves warm up. Dry them by overturning them on a clean towel.
• Once jam is brought to a hard boil, add the sugar, all at once, stirring while you pour it in. Continue on medium-high heat until the jam is back to a full, rolling boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Place several paper towels by the pot and move your jars over onto the paper towel.
• Ladle hot jam into jars using a funnel. Leave as little space on top as you can, without overflowing it. Place lid and ring on jar, securing both well. Jars will be very, very hot! THey'll also get a bit messy, which is fine.

• Mash peaches with an immersion blender or potato masher to desired size and texture. Return to the heat; continue cooking jam until thickened, about 10 minutes more.
• Pack jam into hot jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Wipe rims with a clean, damp cloth. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower in jars using a holder, placing them 2 inches apart. Pour in more boiling water to cover the jars by at least 1 inch. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool, about 12 hours. Press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that lid does not move up or down and seal is tight.

SPICY BLUEBERRY PEACH JAM

Steps:

• 1. Start by sterilizing jars and lids. This takes a little while, so I start this 1st. I place my clean jars in my canner and cover with hot water. Bring this to a boil and boil for at least 10 minutes. Remove jars when ready to use. Pour some of the boiling water from jars back into canner and keep the water boiling so you will be ready to process jars of jam. In another small pot; sterilize lids in gently boiling water.
• 2. Prepare fruit; chop fine. I used my food processer and it works great for chopping fruit. Just don't liquify the fruit. A little juice won't hurt. I hand peeled my peaches but you can remove the skin the same way you would remove skin from tomatoe by dropping a few at a time into boiling water for 2 minutes and then in cold water. The skin should come right off. I chopped the peaches fine and the blueberries coarse. By freezing the blueberries first will help keep from liquifying the fruit when you chop it.
• 3. Add the blueberries peaches, lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon and butter to large pot (Butter helps reduce foaming). Over a medium high heat bring fruit mixture to a rolling boil. A rolling boil is a boil that you can not stir down with a spoon. Continue to boil fruit mixture 4 minute once it reaches a rolling boil, stirring continuously.
• 4. Turn heat off; stir in pectin. Remove jars from canner onto a dry towel. Ladle fruit mixture into hot jars; cap with sterilized lids and tighten bands. Return jars to boiling water in canner and gently boil for 10 minutes. Remove and cool. After completely cooled, check seals and bands.
