Homemade Cloudberry Jam or Homemade Bakeapple Jam
A simple, delectable, two ingredient recipe that is a Northern Canadian specialty, particularly in Newfoundland. Almost impossible to find the fruit anywhere else but the regions it grows in.
Servings: 2 cups
Ingredients
- 500 g fresh or canned Cloudberries or Bakeapples
- 125 g sugar
- ¼ cup (50g ) water if berries are fresh
Instructions
- Place berries into a heavy pan; heat gently until juice starts to flow
- Add sugar and water (if necessary – canned berries will have enough juice); bring to a boil, stirring constantly
- Cook, stirring frequently until thickened (8-10) minutes
- Pour into hot sterilized jars, leaving ¼ inch (6 mm) head space; wipe jar rims thoroughly
- Seal and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes or store in refrigerator for up to 3 months
Notes
Stir very gently to preserve some whole berries in the jam.
