Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pound blackberries (marionberries) (fresh or frozen)
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice

Instruction

  • Place the berries, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan.
  • Bring the berries to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer to thicken, approximately 15 minutes.
  • Use a potato masher or fork to mash the fruit as much or little as desired.
  • The jam is done when it is thick and more of a clump when put on a cold spoon or cold plate and tilted. If it runs like honey, it is not thick enough yet and you need to heat it longer.
  • Store in a jar in the refrigerator for up to three weeks. Or freeze.
