Cuisine: paleo, vegetarian
Serves: 5 cups
Ingredients
  • 4 cups crushed raspberries (if you wish to eliminate some of the seeds, press half of the berries through a mesh strainer - be sure to measure the puree after straining)
  • 1 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons pectin for low sugar recipes (optional - see note)
  • 5 jelly jars (8 ounce size)
Instructions
  1. Wash raspberries in a strainer and be sure all leaves/stems are removed.
  2. Crush raspberries with a potato masher and strain some of the seeds out if desired.
  3. Place all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn down to a simmer.
  4. Let simmer until jam becomes thicker, about 15-20 minutes.
  5. While jam is simmering, place 4 empty jelly jars in a large pot of water and heat it to boiling.
  6. When jam is thickened, scrape off foam if any forms.
  7. Carefully remove jelly jars from water with a tongs and then pour hot jam into hot jelly jars leaving only ½” space from the top of the jar. Use a canning funnel for easier filling.
  8. With a clean damp cloth, wipe the rim of the jelly jars to remove any spilled jam.
  9. Place lid on jar and twist on the ring so it is air tight.
  10. Place entire jar of jam back in the hot water (enough to cover jars by 1-2”) and boil for 15 minutes.
  11. Remove jars of jam from water and let sit out to cool.
  12. After 24 hours, check lids for proper seal by pressing on the top center. If it dents in, it has not sealed and will need to be re-boiled.
  13. If you do not wish to process in the hot water to seal the jam, you can simply keep these in the fridge for about a week or two. Sealed in jars will keep a LONG time.
Notes
If you omit the pectin, boil a little longer until it is condensed a bit. You won't have as firm of a set for the jam but it's just a delish!
