2 cups honey
2 Tbs fresh lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla bean paste *optional
1 packet low sugar (pink box) sure jel

Recipe Note: *Traditional Four Fruit Jam would use blackberries in place of the nectarines.

Directions:

Stir in 1/2 cup sugar and 2 cups honey and let dissolve into fruit mixture - about 10 minutes. Immersion blend fruit until your desired consistency is reached. Stir in fresh lemon juice. Add in final 1/2 cup sugar with pectin mixed in and bring mixture up to a hard boil for 1-2 mins until boil cannot be sitrred away (do plate test to ensure gel stage has been reached)  Stir in vanilla bean paste before jarring jam.
