Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar

  • 3 ½ cups small diced nectarines (do not peel)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 1 large lemon)
  • dash of ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • ½ cup frozen wild blueberries

Instructions

  • Combine the sugar and pectin in a large mixing bowl.  Add the nectarines, lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla bean paste.  Stir to combine, then continuing stirring for 3 minutes or until the sugar is dissolved.  Gently fold in the wild blueberries.
  • Spoon the jam into jars leaving a ½ inch space at the top to allow for expansion when frozen. Seal and set aside for 30 minutes before freezing.
  • Jam will stay delicious for up to 1 year in the freezer or 3 weeks in the refrigerator.
