Strawberry Rhubarb Jam Quick and Easy No Pectin Recipe

This Strawberry Rhubarb Jam recipe is easy and takes less than an hour to make a small batch of 3 to 4 cups. It’s sweet and gooey and the rhubarb adds just enough tartness to make it perfect.

Strawberry Rhubarb Jam is Sweet, Tart, and No Pectin Needed!

Because the fruit and sugar reduce quite a bit during the cooking time, which thickens this up nicely,  there’s no need to add any pectin.

Strawberries and rhubarb are a healthy combination.

The strawberry and rhubarb go together perfectly. The sweet strawberry and slightly tart rhubarb are one of my favorite flavor combinations.

If you don’t grow your own, rhubarb is available right now in the produce sections of many grocery stores and is usually for sale at most farmers’ markets and roadside stands.

Rhubarb is a good source of magnesium, fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, calcium, potassium, and manganese.

Strawberries are also high in fiber and manganese as well as high in vitamin C.

Just chop up the strawberries and rhubarb, add the sugar and lemon juice, and boil for 20 minutes. Bam. Perfection.

Stir frequently! Especially in the last several minutes to prevent scorching.

That’s it. Pour it into clean pint-sized canning jars or something similar. This will make about 3-4 cups or 1 1/2 to 2 pints.

This only makes about 3 cups which most people will eat up very quickly. Because this has so much sugar in it, the jam will last for at least a few weeks in the fridge without going through the canning process.

Sorry, one more question. If I want it a little thicker, what should I change?
