Method

Directions for Making Blackberry Skillet Jam

  1. 1

    Prepare the Blackberries

    Rinse the blackberries under cold water and remove any stems or leaves. Place them in a skillet.

  2. 2

    Cook the Blackberries

    Over medium heat, mash the blackberries with a potato masher or fork until they are broken down. Cook for about 5 minutes until they start to release their juices.

  3. 3

    Add Sugar and Pectin

    Stir in the granulated sugar and the pectin into the skillet. Mix well and bring the mixture to a full boil, stirring constantly.

  4. 4

    Boil the Mixture

    Once boiling, let it boil for 1 minute while stirring continuously. Remove from heat.

  5. 5

    Add Lemon Juice

    Stir in the lemon juice to enhance the flavor and help with preservation.

  6. 6

    Cool and Store

    Pour the jam into sterilized jars while hot. Seal and let them cool to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator.
