My Favourite Raspberry
Freezer Jam Recipe

The Best No-Cook Raspberry Jam

THIS is my Favourite Raspberry Freezer Jam Recipe, the very best no-cook raspberry jam, quick and easy!

This recipe uses a package of No Cook Club House Garden Fare No Cook  gelling powder, another almost identical product is Mrs Wages No Cook Freezer Jam.

Many people ask me what my favourite raspberry freezer jam recipe is.

Well, my favourite recipe is, in part, my choice jam because I lack the time to cook and can jam, so freezer jam is a fast and wonderful alternative!

I find that freezing jam instead cooking and canning jam usually means the ability to use less sugar than cooked jams, resulting in a fresher taste!

The nice deep red colour of freezer jam is original and not compromised by any cooking or further processing of the raspberry fruit.

I find that freezer jam has a much smoother consistency than most canned jams, making it very versatile.

I use my raspberry freezer jam to top ice cream, yogurt, pancakes, waffles, scones, muffins and cheesecakes.

Since we grow a lot of raspberries, I like to make several batches of this  jam recipe using fresh berries, and then I freeze the remaining harvest of berries to make freezer jam during the rest of the year.

When making raspberry jam from frozen berries, I suggest you allow them to only partly defrost, and make the jam when the berries are still slightly frozen.

This freezer jam recipe can be adapted to use ANY 4 cups of prepared fruit.

Raspberry-Peach, Raspberry-Pear, Raspberry-Strawberry Jams are just a few examples of jam creations you can make with this recipe!

Now on to the Raspberry Freezer Jam Recipe ...
