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