Blueberry Pepper Jam Recipe: Ball Jam Maker Recipe

I love this Blueberry Pepper Jam recipe! Blueberry jams are 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 a  Ball Jam and Jelly Maker recipe. 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.

Blueberry Poblano Pepper Jam

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. That recipe will be coming soon.

Description

Loosely adapted from the freshpreserving.com website Jam Maker Berry Jam http://www.freshpreserving.com/recipe.aspx?r=303

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 2/3 cups crushed blueberries (about 2 pints)
  • 3 Tbsp Ball® RealFruit® Classic Pectin
  • 1/2 tsp butter or margarine
  • 3 1/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 Lime, juiced
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped poblano pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the blueberries by washing them and removing any stems.
  2. Crush the blueberries by using the bottom of a glass. This works much better then a potato masher for the small berries.
  3. Measure 2 2/3 cups of the crushed blueberries into a bowl and stir in the lime juice.
  4. Finely chop the poblano pepper and add to the bowl with the blueberries and mix in.
  5. Measure sugar into a bowl and set aside.
  6. Add the pectin to the bottom of the Jam Maker with the Stirrer in place.
  7. Add the crushed blueberries and lemon juice evenly on top of the pectin.
  8. Add the margarine to the Jam Maker.
  9. Press the jam button on the Jam & Jelly Maker and press enter.
  10. Allow the machine to run for 4 minutes until you hear 4 short beeps
  11. Immediately add the sugar slowly to the Jam Maker.
  12. Place the lid on the jam maker.
  13. Allow the Jam Maker to run for the remaining 18 minutes on the timer undisturbed.
  14. Do not lift the lid during cooking time.
  15. When the Jam Maker beeps again the jam is done.
  16. 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.
  17. Fill your jars with the jam and process the jam in a hot water bath for 20 minutes.

  4. 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.
