Instant pot strawberry jam recipe. This strawberry jam is made in over 20 minutes for an easy summer treat! My 3-ingredient strawberry jam recipe uses less sugar than most recipes. However, it has enough sugar that your taste buds are satisfied. Its flavor was amazing and was applied to a hot biscuit.
I added strawberries and water to a pressure cooker and cooked it for about 1 minute. After the strawberries had been cooked I mashed them with my potato masher. I prefer jams that have a little bit of texture in them. If you like more even and smooth jams then you should blend the strawberries and get a consistent result.
I’m making breakfast! And I’m dreaming of the number of new jam recipes I’ll be able to whip up this summer! Maybe some raspberry or peach jelly, or even strawberry-blueberry marmalade!
