Ingredients
- 2 Pineapples about 7 cups crushed pineapple
- 8 tablespoons classic pectin
- 6 cups sugar
- 5¼ tablespoons lemon juice optional for flavor
Instructions
- Prepare pineapple. Cut it into chunks. See article above for the method.
- Puree it in a food processor bowl to make crushed pineapple.
- Add the pectin to about ¼ cup of the sugar.
- Mix well. Smash any large chunks of pectin.
- Add the pectin mixture to the crushed pineapple and lemon juice in a large jam pot. Heat it over medium-high heat until it comes to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down.
- Let it boil for a full minute. Then add the remaining sugar all at once.Bring it up to another full rolling boil and boil for another full minute.
- Ladle hot jam into hot jars with the aid of your canning funnel. Leave ¼-inch headspace.
- Remove air bubbles with a bubble tool or a wooden or plastic chopstick.
- Wipe the rims of the jars with a damp towel.
- Center the lid on the jar using your lid lifter.
- Fill the water bath canning pot with jars.
- Process jars for 10 minutes if your elevation is under 1000 feet above sea level.
- Let the jars sit in hot water after processing to cool down slowly for about 10 minutes.

Notes
- After cooling for 12-24 hours, check the seals. Press down in the middle of the lid. If it flexes up or down, the jar is not sealed and should be refrigerated and used first.
- Then remove the bands. Gently pick the jar up by the lid to further check the seal. Again, if it is not sealed, use it first.
- Label jars with contents and the date. Store in a cool, dark space.
- Adjustments for altitude
- half pints or pints 0-1000 feet above sea level 5 minutes
- 1000-6000 feet above sea level 10 minutes
- 6000+ feet above sea level 15 minutes
- Note: This jam can be made without pectin since pineapples contain a lot of natural pectin. Adding pectin increases the yield and is much faster and easier than without it.
