Ingredients You’ll Need

To create your own jar of happiness, gather the following ingredients:

4 cups of fresh raspberries, mashed
1 ½ cups of sugar
1 package (1.75 oz) Sure-Jell fruit pectin
⅓ cup of water
A pinch of patience (optional!)

Instructions That Make it Easy Peasy

Now that you have your ingredients, it’s time to get your hands dirty—well, a little sticky at least! Follow these simple steps:

Start by washing those lovely raspberries and gently mashing them until they reach your desired texture. If you like your jam a bit chunky, don’t go overboard with the mashing!
In a pot, combine the mashed raspberries with sugar. Let that mixture sit for about 10 minutes; this will help the magic of the sugar begin to work its wonders!
In a separate small saucepan, mix the Sure-Jell pectin with the water. Bring it to a boil and stir for about 1 minute until it’s completely dissolved.
Now pour that pectin mix into your raspberry-sugar potion and stir like you mean it! Keep stirring until everything is well combined.
Once all the ingredients are mixed, let the goodness sit for another 5 minutes. You want to let it thicken just a bit. Resistance is futile—your kitchen will smell amazing!
Finally, ladle your jam into clean, sterilized jars, seal them up, and pop them in the freezer. Voila! You now have a berry delightful treat that’s perfect for breakfast, snacks, or just sneaking a spoonful when nobody’s watching.

Enjoy your tasty creation, and remember: with great jam comes great responsibility—like sharing with friends and family (maybe). Happy jamming!
