I love making preserves. There is something about looking in the fridge & seeing a multitude of jars filled with things I have made myself. Normally I take my favorite marmalade recipe & just tweak it to whatever fruit I happen to be working with at the time. But that takes the better part of an hour. My days seem to be getting shorter & it seems I have less & less time to be in the kitchen. So spending hours in there making homemade jam just isn’t happening anymore. So I decided to make a NO COOK – SIMPLE – only 3 INGREDIENTS freezer jam that was ready in record time. I may never go back to my other method again. I love how this turned out.
Blueberry Freezer Jam
I’m starting to get so excited about spring. I really get depressed when the market & our co-op have few things to choose from for produce during the winter months. Come spring & summer our house will be packed with produce & I literally can’t wait.

I have some frozen blueberries and I just might have to make some of this yummy jam. I only have big jar right now so I might have to get some small ones. Do you think that I would be better off using the berries frozen or thawing them first?
Gina Kleinworth says
You could do a large jar Alison- This made 2 small ones for me. I would probably thaw the berries just a little so that they are easier to pulse in the food processor & it will also make it easier to blend with the sugar mix.
