Strawberry Kiwi Freezer Jam Recipe
by Richelle Stafne #Recipes

Makes 5, 8-ounce jars

This recipe uses freezer jam pectin, which means the recipe uses less sugar

• 1½ cups granulated sugar
• 1 pouch (1.59 ounces) freezer jam pectin
• 2 cups crushed, hulled (cap removed) strawberries (or raspberries)
• 2 cups diced, peeled kiwi fruit (or mashed banana)

In a medium bowl, combine sugar and pectin, stirring until well blended. Add fruit. Stir for 3 minutes. Ladle into freezer jars, leaving ½ inch headspace. Apply lids tightly. Let stand at room temperature until thickened (about 30 minutes). Freeze up to one year (or enjoy immediately). Thaw before use.
