Fieldberry Freezer Jam

My sister gave me this recipe after learning to do it at a HPFE class. I have some other recipes that she gave me but this suited my family the best. If you want other recipes I can let you know what I have.

FieldBerry Feast Freezer JamMakes about 5 8ounce jars

1 1/2 cups sugar
1 pouch freezer jam pectin
2 cups crushed hulled strawberries
1 cup crushed red raspberries
1 cup crushed blackberries

1. In a medium bowl, combine sugar and pectin, stirring until well blended. Add fruit, stir for 3 minutes.

2. Ladle jam into plastic or glass freezer jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Apply lids tightly. Let jam stand at room temperature until thickened, about 30 minutes. Serve immediatly, if desired. For longer storage, refrigerate forup to 3 weeks or freze for up to 1 year.

Also, I doubled the recipe and mixed the berries in my food processor to crush them.


Variation:
If you prefer, an equal amount of splenda No Calorie Sweetener may be substituted for the sugar in these recipes. Other artificial sweeteners are not suitable substitutes.

And you can substitute blueberries for the blackberries and/or use black raspberries instead of red
