Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 500 g raspberries
  • 500 g cherries
  • 500 g gelling sugar 2:1

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 5 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes

for 7 – 8 screw-top jars

Wash the berries and cherries. Pit the cherries. Place both in a large pot and puree using a hand blender (children usually prefer it to chunky ones). Mix with the gelling sugar and bring to a boil. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring continuously according to the package instructions. Pour into 7-8 clean screw-top jars (store-bought or, better yet, reuse old ones), screw on the lids, and let cool. The jam will keep in the jars for at least a year if stored in a cool, dark place.
