Have you ever taken your toddler strawberry picking? I’m considering taking Camille, who is 2, but I have some questions. Do they teach\u00a0the kids about bees and how not to piss them off and elicit a sting? And do they go over exactly why you shouldn’t eat unwashed berries covered in dirt in the field?<\/p>\n

Help this first time Mama out, and she’ll reward you with a small batch strawberry jam recipe. :)<\/p>\n

I’m one of those crazy Mams that doesn’t buy sweetened yogurt for my kid (grass-fed full-fat plain, please!), and so I made some jam to stir into her yogurt\u00a0for a flavor boost.<\/p>\n

I can’t get over how much FRESHER this strawberry jam tastes than store-bought. It has a bright, acidic FRESH strawberry flavor that tastes like real berries…with a little extra sweetness. And I have to say…the red in these photos hasn’t been enhanced. It’s just bright red because it’s so fresh!<\/p>\n

This small batch strawberry jam is\u00a0great on ice cream, stirred into yogurt, and even right off the spoon. I also have plans to use it for a dessert for two, so stay tuned for that!<\/p>\n

I used 2 pounds of strawberries to make just 1 pint of jam. Scale it up as you need to, but if my recipe for a small batch of apple butter<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is any indication, you guys love making small batches of jam.<\/p>\n

All you need is a surplus of fresh strawberries and a little sugar. And some time. You definitely need time.<\/p>\n

I’m not going to give you hard and fast rules for making this jam. I want you to cook it, while stirring every 2-3 minutes until it starts to feel like it’s sticking to the pan. It will thicken and threaten to stick to the bottom. Take it 1 minute further while constantly stirring. It will set\u00a0into jam as it cools, I promise. No pectin needed. Though, if you have some leftover from my strawberry pate de fruit<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, I’m sorry about that. That reminds me, I need to make those again.<\/p>\n

Off to the kitchen!<\/p>\n

Oh, and these are the exact jam jars I used in the photos. They’re half pint mason jars<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0that hold 8 ounces.<\/p>\n
