How to Make Ataulfo Mango Jam

  1. Peel, pit, and roughly chop 4 cups (about 2 large) Ataulfo mangoes.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped mangoes, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 cup lemon juice, and 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract).
  3. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Reduce heat to low and continue to simmer for approximately 40-50 minutes, or until the jam has thickened and the liquid is significantly reduced. The jam should sheet off a spoon.
  5. Remove the vanilla bean (if using).
  6. Carefully transfer the jam to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
  7. Ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe jar rims clean, seal, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (for longer shelf life). Alternatively, allow to cool completely before storing in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  8. Enjoy your homemade Ataulfo mango jam!
