Mango and Passion Fruit Jam

Experience the tropical flavors of mango and passion fruit in this easy-to-follow jam recipe.

Ingredients

2 cups ripe mango, diced
1 cup passion fruit pulp (about 8-10 passion fruits)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by peeling and dicing the ripe mangoes. For the passion fruit, cut them in half and scoop out the pulp into a bowl. You should have around 1 cup of passion fruit pulp.
Combine Ingredients: In a large saucepan, combine the diced mango, passion fruit pulp, granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Cook the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to bubble. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently. The jam should thicken and the fruits will break down.
Check the Consistency: To test if the jam is done, place a small spoonful on a plate and let it cool. Run your finger through it; if it holds its shape, it is ready for canning. If it’s too runny, cook it a bit longer.
Jar the Jam: Sterilize your jars by running them through the dishwasher or boiling them in hot water. Once the jam reaches your desired consistency, pour it carefully into the sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace. Seal the jars tightly.
Cool and Store: Let the jars cool to room temperature before storing them in the refrigerator. The jam can also be processed in a water bath if you wish to store it for longer periods at room temperature.

This Mango and Passion Fruit Jam will become a staple in your kitchen, bringing a taste of tropical paradise to your breakfast table. Enjoy the burst of flavors that comes with each spoonful!
