1 cup jam

1 cup jam

Fill ½ cup with sliced strawberries or other berries. You only need about 3 large strawberries or 1/2 a punnet of blueberries. Place in an 8 cup glass measuring jug with a spout or a Pyrex bowl. Stir in ½ cup sugar. Microwave on High for 5 -6 minutes, stirring every 1 minute. Makes approx. 1/4 cup of jam – the perfect amount for scones!

( Note if your jam threatens to bubble up and over the top of the jug just pause and stir more frequently)
