    64 Servings

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons Powdered Pectin
  • 2 2/3 cups Blueberries, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • Lemon Zest, from one whole lemon
  • 3 1/3 cups Granulated Sugar

Directions

  1. In the FreshTECH Jam & Jelly Maker, sprinkle the pectin evenly over the bottom of the pot fitted with the stirrer. Pour in the crushed blueberries, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
  2. Press the Jam button. The cook time will automatically default to 21 minutes. Press Enter.
  3. Wait 4 minutes for the appliance to sound 4 short beeps, alerting you to add the sugar. Remove the lid and gradually pour in the sugar as the stirrer continues stirring. Place the lid back on the pot.
  4. The appliance will continue cooking and stirring your jam. When it beeps again, the jam is complete. Press cancel, unplug the appliance, and remove the lid.
  5. Carefully remove the stirrer (be careful; the jam will be hot). Skim any foam from the top.
  6. In the meantime, preheat your jars in the Automatic Home Canning System. Remove the inner pot and rack, and fill the inner pot with warm water to the fill line. Place the rack back into the inner pot and place the empty jars on top of the rack.
  7. Close and lock the lid, and press Pre-Heat and then Start. The green Ready light will flash once the jars are finished pre-heating.
  8. When you're ready to fill your jars, unlock and open the lid of the Automatic Home Canning System. Remove one hot jar at a time, fill it with jam to 1/4" headspace, and wipe the rim of the jar. Center the lid on the jar an twist on the band until fingertip tight. Return the filled jar to the pot. Repeat with the remaining jars.
  9. Close and lock the lid, and press Jams & Jellies, and then Recipe 1. Press Start to begin preserving. When the appliance beeps and the Ready light flashes, your jam has been successfully preserved. Press Stop, and unlock and open the lid.
  10. Remove the jars from the pot using the jar lifter, and place them on a towel. Allow them to cool for at least 12 hours. The seals should suck down (you'll hear a popping noise as they do).
