Spiced Apple Pear Jam
"Fresh from the orchard! Preserve the best of autumn with a batch of Spiced Apple Pear Jam. This thick, sweet jam is a beautiful combination of fall fruits and subtle warm spices like ginger and cinnamon. Serve it on toast, add a dollop on warm biscuits, or share the jars as holiday gifts for friends and neighbors. This easy pear jam recipe is such a wonderful surprise! I made my first batch on a whim early in the season, and we're now officially hooked. I've squirreled away a handful of jars to share with loved ones as homemade Christmas gifts, but we're enjoying the rest of the ginger pear jam at almost every meal of the day. The combination of fresh apples and fresh pears is quintessential fall -- especially when you add a very subtle touch of ginger, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and cloves. "
