Sweet Cherry Vanilla Jam Recipe

Have you ever made a Sweet Cherry Vanilla Jam? If you are lucky enough to live where the cherries are aplenty I advise you to print this Sweet Cherry Vanilla Jam recipe out and tape it somewhere that you will not forget about it when the cherries come into season!

A few years ago I made a very delicious pear vanilla jam recipe by way of a great canning website Food in Jars.

It was the first time I had ever added vanilla to a jam recipe. At the time I made and after the very first taste of the Pear Vanilla Jam I fell in love.

I have been making jams for well over 20 years and I pretty much only made the staples of jam making. Strawberry jam, blackberry jam, and jalapeno jam were the flavors of jams I would make over and over again each year because I loved them and so did most of the family and anyone I ever shared a jar or two with.

Occasionally I would mix things up by making a mixed berry batch. One year I made a peach jalapeno  That was really good. I love the hot and sweet flavor of a pepper jelly.

Working with jalapeno's can be hazardous to your health so take caution when handling the hot peppers or you may end up like I did in agony. You will only make this mistake once. Take my word for it or you can read about my  jalapeno experience here on my Jalapeno Jelly post.

Sweet Cherry Vanilla Jam

Since I have been making jam in the Ball Jam & Jelly maker I have made two batches of vanilla flavored jam and I can't see my obsession stopping any time soon. This recipe is adapted from the Sweet Cherry Jam recipe on the Ball Fresh Preserving website.

    I just bought a ton of fresh cherries at my local farmers market, how do I substitute then into this recipe?
    Thanks!

      Pit your fresh cherries, crush them and measure out 2 2/3 cups of crushed fresh cherries.

      I have never used the powdered pectin in a traditional batch of jam. You could probably follow the directions for a batch of cherry jam for the powdered pectin but use my ingredient list and cook it in a pot.

    Yum, really great post. Thanks for sharing. I might try my hand at this during the summer time. My {soon to be} mom in law does it and she makes it look so easy!
