Homemade Plum Jam

Ingredients

• 2.5 kg plums
• 500 g sugar
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 1 lemon (juice)

Instructions

1. 1.

   Wash, pit, and quarter the plums. Mix with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice in a wide pan. Let sit for about 2 hours.

2. 2.

   Preheat the oven to 150°C (302°F) on both top and bottom heat.

3. 3.

   Place the pan in the oven and simmer the plums, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 hours depending on fruit juiciness; stir every 20-30 minutes. When thickened, remove the cinnamon stick and puree with a hand blender if desired. Transfer to prepared jars, seal tightly, and let cool before refrigerating.
