Preparation Time: 5 mins
Cooking Time: 40 -50 mins
Home made Jams are really Yummy and of course healthier than the store bought ones which are loaded with preservatives and additives. Preparing Jam at home is very easy and we need just 3 ingredients:) Since I dont want very sweet jam, I had used only 1 cup of sugar for 4 cups of pineapple puree, we can adjust as per our taste and also depending on the sweetness of the pineapple. When prepared carefully, untouched by hands and by using dry clean spoon each time, we can store this Jam for atleast 1-2 months in refrigerator.

| Pineapple Jam |
Ingredients:
- Pineapple, chopped – around 4-5 cups(fruit should be ripen)
- Sugar – 1 cup (adjust as per sweetness of the fruit)
- Fresh Lemon Juice – 1.5 Tbsp
Method:
- Blend the pineapple pieces into smooth puree (If you want chunkier, you can blend coarsely). I have got 4 cups of puree
- In a pan, add pineapple puree and sugar; mix well
- Bring the mixture to a boil by stirring frequently
- Reduce the flame and continue cooking for 30-45 minutes until the bubbles disappear and it reaches jam consistency
- Add the lemon juice, mix well and switch off
- Remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes
- Once it gets cooled down, transfer jam to a clean and dry glass bottle
- Its better to store in refrigerator to prolong the shelf life
- Enjoy it with warm toast / plain bread:)
