Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups peaches, peeled and chopped
- 2 cups raspberries, fresh or frozen
- 2 cups sugar
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 packet pectin
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by peeling and chopping the peaches into small pieces. Measure out the sugar and lemon juice, and have your pectin ready.
- Combine the chopped peaches and raspberries in a large pot. You may mash them for a smoother texture if desired.
- Stir in the lemon juice and sprinkle in the pectin, mixing well to avoid clumping.
- Add the sugar and turn the heat to medium-high. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
- Boil the mixture, stirring constantly, until it reaches a full rolling boil, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Test for consistency using a cold plate test. If it holds its shape, it’s ready!
- Jar the jam into sterilized jars, leaving a quarter-inch headspace at the top.
- Cool the jars at room temperature for 24 hours before storing in the fridge or pantry.
Notes
Enjoy the jam on toast, pancakes, or as a pastry filling. Variations include adding spices or using different fruits.
