Pressure Cooker Recipes For Jams

Make instant pot mixed berry jam this summer! This small batch pressure cooker jam is perfect either for fridge or for canning. Cornstarch-free and only natural pectin used.

Making pressure cooker mixed berry jam is so easy. Less stirring required and less heat coming out from the pot (which is always a plus in summer)!

First thing to do when making instant pot mixed berry jam (or any jam really) is making sure that all berries are washed thoroughly, especially when they don’t come from your own garden. Many shop-bought fruits have some pesticide residue on them, so if you can, buy organic.

Instant Pot Peach Jam Recipe

To get rid of any pesticide residue, place the berries into a large bowl and pour water over. Let them sit for 5 minutes before draining the water and giving the berries a good rinse under running water.

I made this instant pot mixed berry jam with brown sugar, which makes the jam very dark. If you don’t have/don’t want to use brown sugar, you can use white one instead.

Transfer the prepped berries into the inner pot of your instant pot and add sugar and lemon juice. Mix everything well and let it sit for 30 minutes.

This depends on how thick you like your jam. This instant pot mixed berry jam is cooked under pressure for 1 minute and after that, once the pressure has been released manually, you boil it for about 10 minutes.

You can cook it for more or less. This depends on your preference. Either way, you need to be there and stir the jam from time to time to prevent it from burning.

No, I don’t. By putting the lid on right after the jar was filled, you seal the jar and if you turn it upside down and let it sit for about 15 minutes, the jar should be well-sealed.

To double-check if it is, just press down the lid with your finger and let go. If you hear some popping sound when removing your finger, the jam is not sealed. If this is the case, simply let the jam cool completely and store it in the fridge.

If you hear no popping sound, the jars should be air-tight and you can keep them in your pantry for a few months.

Minimalist Strawberry Jam: Two Ingredients + Pressure Cooker ⋆ Hip Pressure Cooking

I have always wanted to make homemade jam but never really got around to it until now! My Instant Pot is just an amazing thing and figured I could probably make some easy pressure cooker jam with fresh huckleberries I bought. It came out delicious and is now added to our 101+ Instant Pot Recipes here on my site. 😉 (originally published 9/18, affiliate links present)

You can make this as an easy Ninja Foodi recipe as well, or in a Crockpot Express. They all work the same with high pressure. After you’re done you can enjoy it in the next few weeks as is or this is how to can jam so it lasts so much longer.

You cannot use this machine for InstaPot canning as stated by the manufacturer but we will show you how to do that the old fashioned way.

If you want to make this same homemade jam on your stovetop, follow our huckleberry jam recipe. You can use any fresh or frozen berries to make either of these. I opt for quick versions though and you must too. 😉

I bought a bunch since they’re only in season once a year here in Idaho. I started by making this huckleberry cobbler.

Always Jam Today

You can use any berries or even peppers you might have but this is what I used this time. Later on I made green pepper jelly <—-using this recipe but the instructions here for a pressure cooker vs. stovetop.

I had about 1.5 lbs. which didn’t look like quite enough fruit when I put it into my pressure cooker, so I added 3/4 of a container of fresh strawberries from our garden too. So the total was 2 lbs. of fresh fruit and the combination turned out to be great.

I suppose you could make Instant Pot jam with frozen berries but I haven’t tried that yet. If I did I probably wouldn’t adjust the time since fruit cooks so fast in an Instant Pot.

When I try that I will update this to let you know how that turns out. Or if you use frozen let me know below so I can share that info. 😉

When it is summertime we are all about fruit because it’s so fresh and inexpensive when it’s in season. There are tons of farms out here so we get on their email list and schedule trips up to pick fresh peaches, blackberries and anything else we can get our hands on.

If you have a backyard garden I suggest planting strawberries and trying to make homemade jam this year. It is SO simple and I guarantee you won’t buy a jar at the store after you try it. I would involve your kids in the process too, I assure you they’ll love it.

You can if that is really all you have. You’ll just need to drain the liquid out of the can first. It won’t have the same consistency, it will be smoother without the chunks of fruit you see here. It will be more like jelly versus jam.

Fruit releases a lot of juice so liquid really isn’t necessary. Then you just add a bit of cornstarch and water at the end to thicken it up.

If I were to use something like peaches I would add less sugar. Closer to 3/4 of a cup instead of 1 but that is personal preference. Use this guide to make your own Instant Pot strawberry jam or whatever flavor you prefer and sweeten to your liking. 😉

Instant Pot Strawberry Jam (no Pectin)

Here are a few questions and answers you might have right about now, let us know below if you have others we can help with…

If you do not can properly and just save it in jars inside your refrigerator it should last up to three months.

Nope! It is not recommended by Instant Pot to do this because it doesn’t reach the optimal temperature to kill all bacteria and store on the shelf safely.

Mixed Berry Jam: For Instant Pot And Crock Pot

You may have heard some people online stating that they do this, it is not advised. You need to ensure that the temp. inside the device reaches a very high heat in order to kill all the bacteria that may be present and seal well. It is stated on their website that even under high pressure it will not quite get to that point.

I like the flavor in small doses. Another reason is that it prevents the growth of bacteria if you’re canning your homemade jam. Then make this homemade bread recipe or our easy rolls and serve them together.

Close and lock the lid. Set to high pressure cook time for 1 minutes! Allow to naturally release steam for 10 minutes and then open valve to release the pressure remaining. Remove the lid and set aside.

If you’re wondering how to make homemade jam quickly I have the answer! This pressure cooker jam takes 15 minutes and you can use any fruit you want.

I followed the recipe exactly. It still came out soupy/syrupy even having it on the sauté function of my Instant Pot using the corn starch slurry. But, they are cooling in three jars now (I used larger jars because that’s what I had). I think once they cool they will thicken up some in the jars. But when I saw all the syrup I was thinking this would be amazing over vanilla ice cream or pancakes/French toast. I hope this freezes well because I’m going to have to freeze two jars.
