3-Ingredient Homemade Strawberry Jam
This strawberry jam is super easy and delicious. The best part is it comes together with only three ingredients!
Equipment
- (2) 8 oz. Jars
Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries, finely diced
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Finely dice strawberries, the smaller the better, until you have 2 cups worth of diced strawberries.
- Add strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice to a medium size pot and stir to combine.
- Place pot on stove over medium/high heat. Take a potato masher and stir/mash frequently.
- Once mixture reaches a rolling boil, set timer to 10 minutes. Continue to mash frequently for the 10 minutes while the jam continues to boil.
- Once the 10 minutes is up, remove the jam from the stove. Transfer the jam evenly to both jars and let cool fully before transferring to the refrigerator. I like to let my jam sit in the fridge for at least a few hours, preferably overnight, before eating as it will continue to thicken in the fridge.
- Jam can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a few weeks or in the freezer for up to three months.
