This was my first attempt ever at canning and I'm so surprised it worked! The jam is very sweet, a bit tangy and a bit spicy. I left the peels on (how could anyone peel those things?) and they just sort of melted away in the boiling process and gave the jam a nice red color. Also, I used a 3 oz. packet of the liquid Sure-Jell instead of the powder. I'm so proud of myself! Yeah me!

I loved this recipie. The cinnamon was subtle but gave the jam just a little bit extra flaver. The only changes that I made was to the cooking order. I followed the cooking directions that came with the pectin. They have never let me down. It set up great. I will definatly add this one to my recipie box.
