Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh or frozen fruit (e.g., strawberries, raspberries, or peaches)
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Powdered fruit pectin
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
Instructions
Prepare the fruit by washing, hulling, and slicing it if necessary. If using frozen fruit, allow it to thaw slightly for easier processing.
Mash the fruit with a potato masher or fork until it has a chunky but even consistency. This should yield about 2 cups of mashed fruit.
Add the mashed fruit, granulated sugar, powdered fruit pectin, and lemon juice into the bread machine pan.
Place the pan into the bread machine and select the 'Jam' or 'Jelly' cycle. Start the machine.
Let the bread machine run its cycle. It will cook and mix the jelly for you. This process usually takes about 90 minutes, but refer to your bread machine manual for exact times.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread machine pan (it will be hot) and pour the jelly into sterilized glass jars or an airtight container.
Let the jelly cool to room temperature before storing it in the refrigerator. It will fully set as it chills.
Enjoy your bread machine jelly within 2-3 weeks by spreading it on toast, biscuits, or other baked goods.
