Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy Blueberry Lemon Jam
  1. In a quart-size saucepan, combine blueberries, lemon zest and juice, and maple syrup. Stir gently and bring to a gentle simmer for about 5 minutes.
  2. Mash the blueberry mixture for about 3-5 minutes until most blueberries are broken up and juices are released.
  3. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 50-55 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Perform the cold spoon test to check for thickness. If necessary, continue simmering for another 5-10 minutes.
