Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh raspberries
- 2 cups Fresh peaches (peeled, pitted, and mashed)
- 4 cups Granulated sugar
- 1.59 ounces Powdered fruit pectin
- 0.75 cup Cold water
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the fresh raspberries and mashed peaches. Gently stir until the fruits are evenly mixed. For a smoother consistency, you can lightly mash the raspberries as well.
Gradually add the granulated sugar to the fruit mixture, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Once all the sugar has been added, continue stirring until the sugar is mostly dissolved. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a small saucepan, combine the powdered fruit pectin and cold water. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it comes to a boil. Allow it to boil for 1 minute, then remove it from the heat.
Immediately pour the hot pectin mixture into the fruit and sugar combination. Stir continuously for 3 minutes to ensure the pectin is evenly distributed and the mixture begins to thicken slightly.
Ladle the jam into clean, dry freezer-safe containers, leaving about 1/2 inch of space at the top for expansion. Secure the lids tightly.
Let the jam sit at room temperature for 24 hours to allow it to set. Afterward, store in the freezer for up to 1 year or in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
Thaw frozen jam in the refrigerator before use and enjoy as a spread, topping, or mix-in for recipes.
