Love this recipe! My first batch was so good I had to make more! We are giving jars of this as holiday gifts. As first time jam makers and canners, my daughters and I were a little apprehensive about this project but it came out perfect. We used 1/4 tsp cinnamon and 1/4 tsp nutmeg because we couldn't decide which one would taste better, these flavors add a warmth and depth to the final product. I also canned my jam using the boiling water bath process instead of freezing, but it still came out great. Better than great!
