Skillet Blackberry Jam

Be sure to use a powdered pectin in this recipe. Don't substitute liquid pectin or a low sugar variety.

1 pound ( 4 Cups) fresh blackberries
3/4 C sugar
2 TBS powdered fruit pectin
1 TBS fresh lemon juice

Mash berries with a potato masher or a fork, in a large bowl.

In a 12" non stick skillet, combine berries,sugar, pectin, lemon juice.
Boil, stirring occasionally until slightly thickened, about 7 minutes.
Transfer jam to a large ,shallow bowl, cover the surface with waxed paper, refrigerator. Chill until softly set, at least 30 minutes. The jam will set further if chilled longer.

Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
