Visual Inspiration
Before we get cookin’, let’s feast our eyes on this luscious jam that’s just waiting for some toast or a PB&J:
Ingredients
Now, here’s what you’ll need to bring this jammy dream to life. Get ready for a berry delicious lineup:
- 2 cups fresh raspberries (or frozen if you’re feeling a lil’ lazy)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (sweeten the pot, right?)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice (bring on the zing!)
- 1 package Sure-Jell (or any pectin, just don’t skip this step!)
- ½ teaspoon butter (to reduce foaming, because we want clear jam, not frothy nonsense)
Instructions
Alright, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of making this jam – it’s easier than waking up for a Monday morning meeting!
- First, mash those raspberries in a mixing bowl until they’re a delightful mush. Don’t be shy; channel your inner fruit monster!
- In a separate bowl, mix the sugar with the mashed raspberries. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to let the fruit release its juicy magic.
- Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine the lemon juice and Sure-Jell. Bring this mixture to a boil over medium heat, constantly stirring. You want it bubbling like a cauldron at a witch’s convention.
- Once it reaches a boil, toss in the raspberry-sugar mixture and stir vigorously while continuing to cook for another minute. Make sure everything is well incorporated or else the jam will turn into a berry brawl!
- Add the butter to the mix for that smooth finish and watch the foam disappear like your motivation on a Sunday evening.
- Now, pour this jammy concoction into sterilized jars and let them cool at room temperature. Once cool, pop them into your freezer and try to resist the urge to dig in immediately!
And there you have it! Easy, breezy raspberry freezer jam that’s ready to spread joy on toast, pancakes, or straight from the jar (no judgment!). Enjoy your culinary masterpiece!
