Ingredients
- 200 grams blackberries
- 200 grams blueberries
- 200 grams raspberries
- 2 medium (peeled, cored, and diced) apples
- 400 grams granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 piece cinnamon stick
- 100 milliliters water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries under cold water. Drain well and set aside.
Step 2
Peel, core, and dice the apples into small cubes.
Step 3
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the berries, diced apples, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon stick, and water.
Step 4
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently to dissolve the sugar while the mixture heats up.
Step 5
Once the sugar has dissolved completely, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Allow the jam to cook for about 30-40 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. To test the consistency, place a small spoonful onto a chilled plate and run your finger through it; if it holds its shape and doesn't run, it's ready.
Step 7
Remove the cinnamon stick from the jam and discard it.
Step 8
Carefully ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top. Seal tightly with lids.
Step 9
Allow the jars to cool at room temperature, then store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or process the jars in a water bath canner for long-term storage.
