Peach Mango Jam - spiced up!

Peach Mango Jam my way! Spicing it up for the holidays along with some homemade Madagascar vanilla! The original recipe is below! Hope you enjoy!

3~4 Medium Peaches, peeled, pitted and chopped (about 3 cups)

2 Medium Mangoes, peeled, pitted and chopped (about 3 cups)

1 cup Sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ cup lemon juice

3 teaspoons Pectin

In a large heavy bottom saucepan or a Dutch oven, combine chopped fruit, sugar and lemon juice.

Cook on medium heat, stirring frequently until the fruit start to break down and the mixture is bubbling.

Cook till the fruit are cooked through and very soft, about 15~20 minutes.

At this stage, you can either blend the mixture with a hand mixer for a smoother jam or mash with a potato masher for a chunkier one.

Stir in pectin and mix very well.*

Simmer for 5-10 minutes or until jam thickens. Put a tiny bit on a cold plate and drag your finger through it. If it leaves a clean line - then it is ready. If not, simmer for another 5~10 minutes.
*remove from heat and stir in vanilla
can & process in water bath for 10 min.
