Let's Make Low Sugar Blackberry Jam!

Late summer means blackberry season and this low sugar blackberry jam recipe is my go-to use for blackberries!

This easy recipe for delicious jam uses fresh blackberries, less sugar than the average jam recipes, and pectin.

I love canning low sugar blackberry jam to add to toast, or our favorite – yogurt bowls in the morning!

– blackberries – low sugar pectin – natural cane sugar

ingredients

      Begin by filling your large canning pot with water and bringing it to a boil.

1

       Place your glass jars in the water for 10 minutes. After that remove with tongs and place jars on a clean towel.

2

     Place your lids in a small bowl and cover with hot water for 1 minute, then remove and let the lids air dry at room temperature.

3

     In a large pot add the blackberries and mash with a potato masher over medium-high heat. In a small bowl mix together the pectin and ¼ cup sugar. Add the pectin-sugar mixture to the blackberries.

4

     Bring to a full rolling boil and stir in the remaining amount of sugar. Allow the mixture to thicken.

5

     Ladle the jam into your prepared jars. Wipe the rims down, and place your lid on, then screw the ring on next.

6

     Place the jars of jam into the boiling water canner and process for 10 minutes. Making blackberry jam couldn't be easier!
