Cranberry jam

Small red northern cranberries can be used to make not only fruit drinks and kissels, but also to make pastila, jelly and jam. To make cranberry jam, you only need three ingredients - the berries themselves, a little water and sugar. The jam recipe does not require long cooking of the berries, so the cranberries will retain more of their beneficial properties. Quick five-minute cranberry jam is an excellent supply of vitamins and antioxidants for the winter, which will come in handy as a means of strengthening the immune system.

How to cook Cranberry jam

Step 1

Cranberry jam

Cook the cranberries. In a wide saucepan with a thick bottom, mix the berries, sugar and water. Place the saucepan on medium heat. Stirring with a spoon, bring the jam to a boil, reduce the heat to minimum and cook for another five minutes. Remove foam if necessary.

Step 2

Cranberry jam

Place the jam in jars. Place the finished cranberry jam in sterilized jars and roll up the lids. Turn the jars with jam upside down and wait until they cool completely.

Cranberry jam - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, frozen cranberries work well. No need to thaw—just add a minute or two to the cooking time since they start colder.
Sealed and refrigerated, it keeps for up to 3 weeks. Always check for mold or off smells before using.
Swap sugar with erythritol or monk fruit sweetener for low-carb options, or use honey/maple syrup sparingly for natural sweetness (adjust consistency as needed).
Yes! Cranberries are naturally high in pectin, so this recipe sets well without added thickeners.
Wash jars in hot soapy water, then boil in water for 10 mins or run through a dishwasher cycle on high heat.
Absolutely! Freeze in airtight containers for up to 6 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before use.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or orange zest while cooking, or increase sugar slightly to balance tartness.
Try it on toast, with cheese boards, swirled into yogurt, or as a glaze for roasted meats like turkey or pork.
