Homemade Raspberry Jam

Simple, 2-ingredient, no-canning, no-pectin homemade raspberry jam.
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • Raspberries Enough to fill a small saucepan
  • 4 tbsp White Sugar (Approx) Adjust to your taste - add more if you like it sweeter, add less if you prefer less sweet

Instructions
 

Prep

  • Wash the raspberries! Get a small saucepan. Get a clean jar.

Let's make jam/spread!

  • Toss the raspberries in a small saucepan
  • Turn on stove to medium-high. Give the raspberries a good mash with a wooden spoon, and keep stirring so they won't burn or stick to the pan
  • Boil to a simmer, add sugar and keep stirring. Add sugar to your taste --- suggested amount is 4 tbsp for a small saucepan, but add more or less to your taste
  • Keep simmering until raspberries thicken into a sauce (can take up to 15-20 minutes)
  • Once the raspberries turn into that thick sauce, carefully pour into the clean jar.
  • Keep lid off of the jar, and let cool.
  • Once jam is cooled, secure the lid, and keep refrigerated. Make sure to eat within 1 week!

Notes

Make sure to keep refrigerated, once cooled, and eat within 1 week, as this is a no-canning recipe.
