Makes: 6 jars (8 oz each)
INGREDIENTS
-
4 cups prepared fruit

1 cup unsweetened juice
-
4 ½ Tbsp Fit Lane Low or No Sugar Pectin
-
1 cup sugar
(For a true no-sugar version, follow the adjusted measurements in the Ball guide.)
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Prepare Your Canning Set-Up
Heat your water-bath or steam canner. Sterilize jars, lids, and bands so everything is ready when the jam is hot.
2. Cook the Jam
Combine the fruit, unsweetened juice, and pectin in a pot. Stir well, bring to a full boil, then add the sugar. Return to a hard rolling boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
3. Fill the Jars
Ladle the hot jam into hot jars, leaving ¼" headspace. Remove air bubbles, wipe rims clean, place lids, and tighten bands to fingertip-tight.
4. Process the Jars
Process for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude:
+5 min (1,001–3,000 ft)
+10 min (3,001–6,000 ft)
+15 min (6,001–8,000 ft)
+20 min (8,001–10,000 ft)
5. Cool & Store
Let jars rest 12–24 hours undisturbed. Remove bands, check seals, wash jars, label, and store in a cool, dark place.
✨ Fit Lane Tip:
Warm your jars before filling—this helps prevent thermal shock and keeps your jam from cooling too quickly during the canning process.
