Nectarine or Plum Jam

 
 
Nectarine or Plum Jam

Ingredients
6 Cups chopped nectarines or Plums (I have found that this works best with fruit chopped by hand…in a food processor makes for a softer set)
3 Cups sugar
4 TBSP Lemon Juice

Directions
Combine ingredients and bring to a slow boil for 30 minutes stirring very frequently (I just stand and stir while reading a book)

Remove from heat…at this point you can add any spices you want, cinnamon, ginger, etc. I like ours plain.

Ladle into sterilized Jelly Jars.

Put on hot lids and rings

Tighten (but no overly tight)

Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes

This is super easy, very delicious, and a great way to preserve your soft fruit bounty for the winter.
