Spicy Blueberry Pepper Jam jams is one of my favorite flavors of  jam.

I love plain blueberry jam or a mixed blueberry jam using strawberries and blueberries.

I also love blueberry jam with just a little kick of heat from poblano peppers.

Along with my love of berry jam I also have an obsession with the sweet and spicy flavor of a fruit and pepper jam. One of my all time favorite pepper jam recipes is a peach and jalapeno pepper jam recipe.

This Blueberry Pepper Jam recipe is made in the Ball Jam and Jelly Maker.

If you are an experienced canner the recipe can be adapted for a small batch jam recipe cooking it on the stove. 

Up until recently I only used jalapeno peppers to spice up my pepper jam recipes. A couple of years ago I discovered poblano peppers.

I had been so obsessed and in love with jalapeno peppers that I never tried any other peppers in my jams.

What I love about poblano peppers is that they have a rich mellow pepper flavor that I fell in love with when I made a roasted pepper fajita with them.

There is a depth of flavor that seems to change each time I buy poblano peppers, unlike jalapeno peppers.

I love the flavor the poblano peppers added to this jam. But it wasn't spicy enough for me so next time I make it I will be increasing the amount of poblano peppers I use.

I also made a peach and poblano pepper jam during my canning session.

Follow Flour On My Face on Pinterest

Instructions 

  • Prepare the blueberries by washing them and removing any stems.
  • Crush the blueberries by using the bottom of a glass. This works much better then a potato masher for the small berries.
  • Measure 2 ⅔ cups of the crushed blueberries into a bowl and stir in the lime juice.
  • Finely chop the poblano pepper and add to the bowl with the blueberries and mix in.
  • Measure sugar into a bowl and set aside.
  • Add the pectin to the bottom of the Jam Maker with the Stirrer in place. Add the crushed blueberries and lemon juice evenly on top of the pectin.
  • Add the margarine to the Jam Maker.
  • Press the jam button on the Jam & Jelly Maker and press enter.
  • Allow the machine to run for 4 minutes until you hear 4 short beeps
  • Immediately add the sugar slowly to the Jam Maker.
  • Place the lid on the jam maker.
  • Allow the Jam Maker to run for the remaining 18 minutes on the timer undisturbed. Do not lift the lid during cooking time.
  • When the Jam Maker beeps again the jam is done.
  • Carefully remove the lid by first lifting the back end that is farthest away from you to allow the release of the built up heat and steam. Warning the glass lid will be hot. Place it on a towel out of the way.
  • Fill your jars with the jam leaving a ¼ inch headspace. Wipe the lip of the jar and place a flat lid and screw a band on.
  • Process the jam in a hot water bath for 20 minutes.
  • All the jars to cool for five minutes in the pot. Remove jars and place on a towel. Allow to cool for 24 hours.
  • Check the lids for a proper seal. Store sealed jars,

    Wow the flavor is great
    This is the first time I canned anything since 30 years ago. This was a good way to get back in

      I am afraid this recipe will not work for jelly.

    Can you make the blueberry pepper jam with hot banana peppers?

      I'm sure you could. Just substitute the banana peppers for the peppers in this recipe.

    Hi there, I have question on your Blueberry Pepper Jam. In the instructions #9 it says cut vanilla bean(s), but in the ingredients it does not list vanilla bean(s). Is this just a favor you can add or something you must add ???? I was confused. Thank you.

      Please disregard that line in the instructions. I was writing up two recipes at the same time and the vanilla beans were for another recipe altogether.

      Thank you so much! Jam making is not as hard as you might think. And with the Ball Jam & Jelly maker it is so much easier.

    Your jam sounds absolutely delicious and the consistency looks just perfect! I've only tried making jam once, and it was a big, sticky mess! I need to give it another go... yours looks wonderful! 🙂

    What a great combination of flavours. I love poblanos as well but never thought to pair them with a fruit. Yummy.
