Apricot Jam with Pectin Powder

This is the recipe I used from Sure Jell. It is an older recipe but turned out great. I prefer the powder over the liquid

However I use the flash water bath method to peel the apricots. Utah style we do not leave the peel on.

5 lbs apricots to get 5 cups of peeled, pitted, and mashed Apricots

1/4 Cup Lemon Juice

7 Cups White Sugar

1 tablespoon Butter

1 Box Powdered Pectin
