Ingredients
- 4 large ripe pears
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup water
Directions
Step 1
Begin by peeling, coring, and dicing the pears into small, uniform pieces.
Step 2
In a large saucepan, combine the diced pears, lemon juice, cinnamon, and water.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 30 minutes or until the pears are very tender and breaking down.
Step 5
Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens to a jam-like consistency.
Step 6
Use an immersion blender or a potato masher to break down any remaining large pear chunks to your desired consistency. For a smoother jam, blend thoroughly.
Step 7
Allow the pear jam to cool slightly before transferring it to a sterilized jar or airtight container.
Step 8
Store in the refrigerator and consume within two weeks for the freshest flavor.
