Delicious Homemade Jam Recipes

If you ask us, there are few things quite as satisfying as waking up and enjoying a few pieces of toast smothered in deliciously sweet fruit jam. It might be a simple meal, but the taste of a really great jam is worth sacrificing notions of gourmet cooking (plus, we love that it’s quick and easy before work)! In fact, the only thing we can think of that’s better than grabbing the jar of our favourite jam brand and slathering it on toast that’s still warm… is being able to use jam that we actually made ourselves.

If you’ve never tried making your own jam, then you’re about to discover a whole new world of flavour! Here are absolutely mouth watering homemade jam, jelly, and marmalade recipes to get you started.

Homemade strawberry jam

Let’s start off with the basics! After all, who doesn’t love a good, classic strawberry jam? It’s the quintessential flavour, hitting the mark between sweet and tart just perfectly. It’ll be especially on point when you learn how to make your own

Homemade freezer jam

If you’ve already spent some time browsing through different jam recipes before this then you’re probably already aware that the traditional process of making your own jam isn’t necessarily quick.

Homemade peach jam

Where we come from, one of the absolute best seasonal fruits to get in the summer, right around this time of year, is the Ontario peach. When they’re ripe in the high summer, peaches are fragrant, juicy, and so delicious that our mouths are practically watering while we write this!

Ten minute tart cranberry jam

Were you intrigued by the quick-fix ten minute jam recipes we just showed you above but they just didn’t have a flavour combination that quite held your attention long enough to convince you to make it? In that case, we present an alternative idea for your consideration!

Homemade plum jam

Are you looking for a jam flavour that’s a little less sweet than the berries but not as citrus filled as some of the other alternatives you’ve seen to berry jam so far? Then the ripe juiciness of a plum might just be exactly what you’re looking for

Easy homemade marmalade

Is your favourite type of jam actually marmalade, rather than classic jam? We can’t say we blame you! There’s just something about the more citrus notes in marmalade that’s extra refreshing to enjoy, especially in the morning.
