- 1 lb. pitted cherries roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 tsp lime zest
Add all ingredients to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir occasionally while mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low.
Let mixture simmer while occasionally stirring. If you want a jam that's less chunky, you can gently mash the mixture with a potato masher while it cooks. Let cook for about 20-25 minutes, until jam thickens and/or is at 220 degrees on a candy thermometer.
Remove from heat and transfer jam to a mason jar, seal, and place in fridge to cool completely.
