Are you looking for a tasty way to preserve the abundance of yellow plums you have from your backyard tree? Look no further! In our easy-to-follow recipe guide, we will walk you through the steps to make delicious homemade yellow plum jam. Get ready to indulge in the sweet and tangy flavors of summer all year round!

Ingredients:

  • 5 cups of yellow plums, pitted and chopped
  • 3 cups of granulated sugar
  • 1 lemon, juiced and zested
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Start by preparing your yellow plums. Remove the pits and chop them into small pieces. Measure out 5 cups of chopped yellow plums and set them aside.

2. In a large saucepan, combine the chopped yellow plums, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients.

3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally until the plums have softened and the mixture has thickened.

4. While the jam is simmering, sterilize your jars and lids by submerging them in boiling water for a few minutes. Remove them carefully using tongs and let them air dry on a clean kitchen towel.

5. After the jam has thickened to your desired consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract for an extra layer of flavor.

6. Carefully ladle the hot plum jam into the sterilized jars, leaving about ¼ inch of headspace at the top. Seal the jars tightly with the sterilized lids.

7. To ensure the jars are properly sealed, process them in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Make sure the water level covers the jars by at least 1 inch. Remove the jars from the water bath and let them cool completely on a towel-lined countertop.

8. Once the jars have cooled, check the lids to ensure they have sealed properly. The lids should not flex up and down when pressed. Store any unsealed jars in the refrigerator and consume within a few weeks.

9. Label your homemade yellow plum jam with the date and enjoy! Spread it on toast, use it as a filling for pastries, or even drizzle it over ice cream for a delightful treat.

There you have it, a simple yet scrumptious recipe for homemade yellow plum jam. Preserve the taste of summer and delight your family and friends with this easy-to-make treat. Enjoy!
