    4lb blackberries
    2lb cooking apples
    2 pints water
    1lb sugar

    Wash blackberries. Put in a pan
    Wash apples, cut them up. Mix with blackberries and water and simmer for about an hour until fruit is soft.
    Strain through a sieve or jelly bag.
    Measure juice....1lb of sugar to each pint of juice
    Heat juice gently, stirring in sugar until dissolved. Boil hard to setting point. Pour into hot jars and cover

    1lb of sugar per lb of fruit, any proportion of blackberries and apples, also can put elderberries in if you have some put into large pan, heat gently till sugar disolved, boil rapidly till setting point reached, test by putting a bit on the edge of a saucer if it sets and 'wrinkles' after a few mins it is ready to pot, if not reboil and test till ready, pot into warm jars and seal

    Please does anyone have a recipe for blackberry and apple jam.......I picked 3lbs of brambles from the wild blackberry bushes on the next plot to ours, they are wonderfully dry and ripe, but 3lbs is too much for me to freeze, the freezer is bursting at the seams now, so I thought I would make some jam.....do have a bit of room in the cupboards, am just about to start on my HM strawberry from the lottie..........

    Thanks in advance.....am off to the market to get some cooking apples and sugar..............................
    September grocery budget........trying for £80, not sure if I will make it though!!!!! I certainly did not last month, lost track of the final bill. Will do better this month honest.

    Tesco £57.13
    Petrol £10.00
