A delightful and tangy Rhubarb Cinnamon Jam that’s quick to make and perfect for spreading on toast or using as a gift.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups chopped rhubarb (about 1 pound)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh is best)
  • 1 package fruit pectin (follow package weight/directions)

Instructions

  1. Put the chopped rhubarb, sugar, and ground cinnamon in a large saucepan. Stir to combine and let it sit 30 minutes to release juices.
  2. Add the lemon juice and stir. Place the pan over medium heat, stirring frequently until it comes to a full, rolling boil.
  3. Sprinkle in the fruit pectin and stir quickly to dissolve. Return to a boil and maintain a strong boil for 1 to 2 minutes while stirring constantly.
  4. Remove from heat, skim any foam if desired, and ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars. Seal and let cool.

Notes

For very tart rhubarb, add up to 1/4 cup more sugar to taste. Adjust cinnamon to preference.
