Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large ripe pears
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Begin by peeling, coring, and dicing the pears into small, uniform pieces.
In a large saucepan, combine the diced pears, lemon juice, cinnamon, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 30 minutes or until the pears are very tender and breaking down.
Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens to a jam-like consistency.
Use an immersion blender or a potato masher to break down any remaining large pear chunks to your desired consistency. For a smoother jam, blend thoroughly.
Allow the pear jam to cool slightly before transferring it to a sterilized jar or airtight container.
Store in the refrigerator and consume within two weeks for the freshest flavor.
