Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.

This is a simple way to make jam - in your bread machine! Some machines have a specific jam-making setting so if your's has it follow those directions. Different machines work differently so you may have to play around with the settings. Ultimately you want the mixed jam ingredients to "bake" for one hour to set the pectin. If you use other fruits you may have to adjust the amounts used to account for different sweetness levels.

2 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
1 3/4 cup sugar
2 ounces liquid pectin
Chop the raspberries and combine with the sugar and pectin.
Place the ingredients in the bread pan and place pan in bread machine.
Select basic setting (if your machine has a jam setting then follow the manufacturer's instructions).
Start the machine and let mix for 6 minutes. Stop the machine and switch to the bake cycle (consult your machine's instruction book if needed) and "bake" for one hour.
Carefully remove the bread pan from the unit (it will be hot) and let cool for 45 minutes. Pour the jam into jars with lids and store in the refrigerator.
You can use this same recipe with strawberries or blueberries, just adjust the sugar to fruit ratio as needed.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.

My liquid pectin came in a 3oz package and since someone else had said theirs came out runny, I used all 3 ozs of it. I used 2 1/2 cups of blackberries and 1 3/4 cups sugar. The jam was solid and delicious.

I followed the directions exactly as they are written. The jam was too sweet and was too thin. I used strawberries instead of rasberries. Maybe that was the difference. I think I will try it again with rasberries. As for the batch I have already made I am going to use it on pancakes.
