How to Make My Welcome To Maine Fall Pumpkin Jam
- Wash and peel the pumpkins. Cut into chunks and remove seeds.
- In a large pot, combine pumpkin chunks, sugar, lemon juice, and spices. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
- Reduce heat and simmer for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened and reached the desired consistency. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
- Prepare your canning jars by sterilizing them in boiling water for at least 10 minutes. Keep hot until ready to use.
- Ladle the hot jam into the sterilized jars, leaving ½ inch headspace.
- Wipe the rims of the jars clean, place lids and rings on top, and tighten fingertip tight.
- Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for specific instructions).
- Remove jars and let cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ as the jars seal. Check seals by pressing the center of each lid; if it doesn’t flex, it’s sealed.
