Raspberry Plum Jam Recipe

Raspberry Plum Jam RecipePhoto by: Taste of Home Raspberry Plum Jam Recipe Rating 5

The thing I like best about this jam is the way the plums stretch the flavor of the raspberries. I make it when plums are in season, and we enjoy it all winter long on toast or homemade bread. For a few years, my husband and I had a small acreage with chickens, rabbits and sheep. Although we now live in town, our hearts still belong in the country! We have six children—three of them grown, two teenagers plus a girl who's 10—and two grandchildren.

Wonderful jam. I will be making this every year. I used unsweetened raspberries and it was just fine.
