If you love bright, fresh flavors and homemade treats, lemon jam is a must-try. It is tangy, sweet, and wonderfully refreshing, perfect for spreading on toast, filling cakes, or stirring into yogurt. Best of all, it’s incredibly easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients. Unlike many traditional jams that take hours, this recipe comes together quickly and delivers amazing results every time.
Why Lemon Jam Is So Special
Lemon jam is different from other fruit jams because it combines sweetness with a pleasant citrus bite. Lemons are naturally rich in pectin, which helps the jam set beautifully without needing added thickeners. They are also full of vitamin C and antioxidants, making this jam not only delicious but also beneficial for your immune system and digestion.
Homemade lemon jam has a fresher, more vibrant flavor than anything you can buy in a store, and you can adjust the sweetness exactly to your taste.
Ingredients You Will Need
- 4 large lemons (preferably organic)
- 2 cups sugar (white or cane sugar)
- 2 cups water
- Optional: a small piece of ginger or a splash of vanilla for extra flavor
