How to Make Peach Pineapple Jam

  1. Preheat oven to 225°F (107°C). Wash and sterilize half-pint jars by placing them upside down in a 9x13 inch metal pan with 2 cups of water. Place in the preheated oven.
  2. While jars are sterilizing, heat jar lids in a small saucepan of simmering water.
  3. In a large stockpot, combine 8 cups chopped fresh peaches (or 8 cups canned peaches with their juice).
  4. Add 2 cups crushed pineapple (with its juice).
  5. Add enough water to bring the total liquid volume to 3 1/2 cups.
  6. Add 1 (3 ounce) package orange jello.
  7. Add 1 box Sure-Jell (pectin).
  8. Stir in 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter or margarine.
  9. Stir well with a wooden spoon to combine.
  10. Add 2 cups water and stir.
  11. Bring mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
  12. Add 7 cups granulated sugar all at once. Stir constantly to prevent scorching.
  13. Continue to boil for exactly one minute, stirring continuously. The boil should be a rolling boil that cannot be stirred down.
  14. Remove from heat and skim off any foam.
  15. Stir in 1/2 cup maraschino cherries (optional).
  16. Carefully fill sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
  17. Wipe jar rims clean with a damp cloth.
  18. Place lids and rings on jars, tightening fingertip-tight.
  19. Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
  20. Remove jars from canner using tongs and place on a towel-lined surface. Allow to cool completely.
  21. You should hear a “pop” sound as the jars seal. The lid will be slightly indented when sealed.
  22. Allow to cool completely and check seals before storing. If the seal does not set overnight, use recipe liquid cement #151544 (optional).
