🍑 Nectarine & Plum Jam

Small-batch, no pectin needed.

When summer gifts us with an abundance of sweet fruit, the kitchen becomes a place of transformation and gratitude. This nectarine plum jam was created from the blessing of gifted nectarines and plums, turning seasonal treasures into a sweet reminder that simple ingredients can become something magical.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups chopped nectarines + plums

  • 1½–2 cups sugar

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice

Method

  1. Combine all ingredients in a pot.

  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring often.

  3. Simmer 20–30 minutes until fruit breaks down and thickens.

  4. Test: spoon on cold plate—if it wrinkles when pushed, it’s done.

  5. Store in fridge or freeze.

Notes

  • Use the ripest fruit for jam

  • Freeze extra fruit for smoothies (future-you reward system)
