Christmas Jam

I usually make and give jams and jellies for Christmas gifts and hopefully I will be able to get one batch made and deliver soon. Just thought I'd share this easy recipe with you, in case you too want to make and give a yummy treat of a gift or make a batch for yourself, you will thank me in the dead of winter while you enjoy a spoon of Christmas time on toast.

Christmas Jam
2 c. cranberries
1 orange, peeled & quartered
16 oz. frozen strawberries, thawed
3 c. sugar
3 oz. liquid pectin
5 half pint jars (ready to fill)
Coarsely grind cranberries and orange sections in a food processor. Spoon into a heavy saucepan, add strawberries and sugar. Bring mixture to a full boil, stirring for one min. Remove from heat and stir in pectin, skim off foam. Pour into prepared jars and process for 10 min. Makes 5- 1/2 pints

I enjoy making jams and jellies, curds too and I love to share them as well.
