Today I'm posting the jam recipe I promised on my Canning Cherries in Honey post, which has been so popular! Hopefully you'll find this post equally delicious sounding, because it is really good! When I canned the cherries, I found myself with amounts of cherries, raspberries and strawberries from my garden that were too small in number to can alone, so naturally I decided to make a jam! Here are a few tips to remember when making Jam:
I wanted this jam to have a richer flavor, so I experimented with adding vanilla and cinnamon to it! I really like it, but if you want to leave those two ingredients out, feel free to do that. The taste to me is really yummy! For more out of the ordinary jam recipes, give these a try!

My go-to produce place had a really great deal on cherries, both Bing and Rainier, as well as raspberries. So, you know that I have been in my element canning and preserving. You also know that I have recently been experimenting with using honey instead of refined sugar in many of my recipes. Doing some research, I found that I can use honey when canning! I decided to try it with my cherries.

It is so great having friends with fruit trees! When there is a bumper crop year and they are up to their ears in so much fruit that they don't want to go to waste, they think of me and I appreciate it so much!
I was over at Anita's house the other day and everywhere I turned, she had apricots in buckets, boxes and baskets. I took some home and canned some. Another friend also gave me some small peaches from her tree, so between the leftover apricots and the leftover peaches, I decided to make a batch of Apricot Peach Butter in the Crockpot. It was so easy and the results were fantastic! This post contains affiliate links. I will be compensated for purchases made through those links at no additional cost to you.

After babying and protecting and watering and cutting back and fertilizing my strawberry patch over the last 3 years, this year it is starting to produce like crazy! I am in heaven over it! I've made us Strawberry Shortcake and used them in smoothies, but now I am wanting to be able to preserve some. I've frozen berries in the past, I do not like the result of simply canning them in simple syrup, and I have plenty of Strawberry Jam in my cupboard. Then, I saw an idea for making Strawberry Pie Filling and I realized that would be the perfect way to preserve some of these beauties! Today I had enough strawberries to measure 8 cups of sliced strawberries. I wondered if that would be enough to give me at least 2 quarts of pie filling. I remembered that I did have some frozen strawberries still in the freezer. My mind started working and I came up with a process that has worked very successfully, tastes so good and is beautiful in the jar! I'm going to share that process with you today.
