Cherry Jam

Found this recipe online. Loved it, but it only made 4 pint-sized jars of jam.


4 c Cherries, finely chopped
1/4 c lemon juice
1 pkg Pectin

Put in 6-8 qt sauce pan. Bring to full rolling boil (cannot be stirred down) on high heat, stirring constantly.

5 c Sugar
1/4 tsp Almond Extract

Pre-measure sugar. Quickly add to boiling fruit mix. Bring back to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute.

Pour jam into prepared jars. Place lids on jars, screw on ring, and turn upside down for 2 hours.
