Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 20m

Yield 3/4 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups berries, sliced if large
1/3-1/2 cup sugar, to taste
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • 1) Combine all of the ingredients in a large microwave-safe bowl. Make sure the bowl is large enough; the berries/sugar shouldn't fill more than 1/3 of the bowl, as they'll bubble up quite a bit as they cook.
  • 2) Cook the berries for 5 minutes in the microwave.
  • 3) Remove the bowl from the microwave, stir the berries, and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • 4) Remove the bowl from the microwave, and stir thoroughly. If the mixture hasn't become sauce-like and slightly syrupy, cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  • 5) Stir to combine any liquid, and refrigerate. The jam will thicken as it cools.

SUPER EASY MICROWAVE STRAWBERRY JAM



Super Easy Microwave Strawberry Jam image

This quick and easy recipe makes a small batch of jam that is not too sweet with fantastically bright berry flavor. When I couldn't find the original recipe from 20+ years ago, I created this simple one with just 2 ingredients. Mixture is very hot, so use care when stirring. Refrigerate leftovers if there are any! Tastes great on toast and English muffins or spoon while warm over ice cream. Blueberries can also be used in place of strawberries.
