Raspberry Peach Jam Recipe
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cook Time: 35 minutes
- Total Time: 50 minutes
- Yield: 7 cups 1x
- Category: jam
- Method: stove top
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups of peaches, peeled and chopped
- 2 cups of red raspberries
- 5 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 package of Sure Gel premium fruit pectin
- 2 Tablespoons of lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon butter (optional)
Instructions
- Combine peaches, raspberries, and lemon juice into a large saucepan
- Crus fruit slightly – or a lot as you prefer. I find a potato masher works well for this
- Add fruit pectin, and stir to dissolve
- Add the butter now if you’re using it. The purpose of the butter is to help keep the jam from developing a foam. It’s not a necessity, but it does help.
- Bring fruit mixture to a rolling boil
- Add sugar, and stir until dissolved
- Bring back to a rolling boil that cannot be stirred down
- Set your timer for one minute and continue boiling
- When time is up, remove from heat, and using a spoon, skim any foam that may have developed. I skim it into a bowl or jar and keep it in the fridge to use first
- Ladle into clean, hot jars to about 1/4 inch from the top
- Fit with lids and rings
- Water bath process for 5 minutes
- Enjoy!
