Description

Easy ground cherry freezer jam. This recipe is easily doubled.

Ingredients
  • 2 cups husked and pitted ground cherries
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 lemon, zested, or to taste
  • 1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 (3 ounce) package lemon-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®)
Directions
  1. 1. Place ground cherries in a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a large saucepan.
  2. 2. Stir sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice into the cherries. Bring to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, until ground cherries soften, about 15 minutes. Add lemon gelatin; stir until dissolved. Skim any foam off the top of the jam with a slotted spoon.
