How to Make Blueberry Apricot Jam

  1. Combine blueberries, apricots, lemon juice, and sugar in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 60-70 minutes, or until the jam reaches setting point (a small amount placed on a chilled plate wrinkles when pushed with a finger). Stir frequently to prevent burning.
  4. Remove from heat and skim off any foam that has formed on the surface.
  5. Ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch headspace.
  6. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, seal with lids and rings, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust time based on altitude; consult a canning guide for details).
  7. Remove jars from the canner and let cool completely. You should hear a satisfying "pop" as the jars seal.
