BLACKBERRY JALAPENO JELLY

Steps:

• Mix the pectin crystals with 1/2 cup sugar in a bowl. Stir the blackberry juice, pectin mixture, green jalapeno, and red jalapeno together in a saucepan; bring the mixture to a boil for 1 full minute. Add the 3 1/2 cups sugar and return to a rolling boil until the sugar has fully dissolved, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir while off heat to remove bubbles and foam for about 5 minutes.
• Ladle into sterile jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Seal jars in a hot water bath. Refrigerate jelly after seal is broken.

BLACKBERRY PEPPER JELLY

Steps:

• 1. You can adjust the heat of the jelly by removing the seeds from the jalapenos. I like the sweet heat of them in this jelly so I keep them.
• 2. Finely dice the jalapenos. I don't have gloves so I just use a sandwich bag over my hand to avoid touching the peppers while dicing them.
• 3. Finely dice and seed the poblano and bell pepper.
• 4. In a large dutch oven, heat cider vinegar and sugar on medium heat until sugar has dissolved.
• 5. Add peppers and cook until boiling.
• 6. Add berries and sprinkle pectin over mixture and stir in a tablespoon at a time.
• 7. Boil for 5 minutes.
• 8. Ladle into hot sterilized jars and boil for 10 minutes. Remove and let set for 24 hours before tasting. This will make great holiday gifts. Not only is it great with cream cheese and crackers, but it pairs very well with chicken. Grilled chicken wings tossed in the jelly is amazing! Enjoy

BLACKBERRY JALAPENO JAM RECIPES RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Fill water canner half way with water and bring to a simmer. Sterilize your jars and lids and keep them warm for when you fill to prevent the jars from breaking. Mix Sure Jell packet and 1/2 cup sugar in a small bowl and set aside. Crush your black berries one layer at a time in a mixing bowl with the potato masher. You don't want to mash them so much it becomes think to where there isn't juice. Just enough to extract the juice. Place your cheese cloth (You will need 4 packages of cheese cloth or a roll of it. I found these in the automotive section in Wal-mart) in another bowl and pour the blackberries onto it. Tie up the corners (Or pull them up and twist them) and allow the juice to drip through into the bowl. (I use my glass 2 measuring cup) You can squeeze gently if you want to, but do not squeeze it so the berries get to compacted in the cheese cloth or it is hard for the juice to come through. This process can be tedious and take a while. Measure exactly 4 cups of juice and pour into a sauce pan. Note: you can rinse your cheese cloth out a few times and squeeze out excess water and reuse. You don't want to do this more than twice or you might get some of the fabric in the juice. Mix the black berry juice, pectin mixture, the red and green jalapeno, and butter into your sauce pan and bring to a rolling boil on high heat that doesn't stop boiling when you stir it. Stir in remaining sugar and return to a boil. Boil for 1 minute stirring constantly. Remove from heat and skim off any foam in the pan. To make sure that the jelly is of the right consistency, place a small saucer in the freezer. Remove, once cold, and put a small amount of jelly on the plate. Run your finger or spoon through it and if it doesn't flow back into the other liquid then your set! Fill jars up to 1/4 inch from the rim. Wipe off the brims of the jars and place the lids and rings on the jars. Put the jars on the rack in your water canner and lower into the water. Process for 5 minutes. Remove the jars from the water and let cool on a towel. Once the jars are cool, gently press on the lids to make sure they don't pop back. If they do they aren't sealed. Variation: Mix the pectin and cornstarch with 1 cup of sugar in a bowl. Stir the blackberries, pectin mixture and peppers in a saucepan. Bring to boil for 1 full minute. Add the 7 cups sugar and return to a rolling boil until the sugar has fully dissolved, about 1-3 minutes Remove from heat. Ladle into sterile jars and seal them in a hot water bath for 15 minutes.

POPPIN' JALAPENO BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven.
• Combine blackberries, honey, jalapeno peppers, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Mix 1/2 cup brown sugar and cornstarch together in a bowl; stir into blackberry mixture until brown sugar mixture is dissolved.
• Mix flour and 1/2 cup brown sugar together in a separate large bowl; cut butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender or food processor until mixture forms pea-sized balls. Add ice water and mix with your hands until dough is well combined, adding flour if the mixture is too sticky and small amounts of water if the mixture is too dry.
• Divide dough in half and roll each half into a 9-inch circle on a well-floured surface. Press 1 circle into a 9-inch pie dish.
• Remove jalapeno peppers from blackberry mixture and discard. Slowly pour blackberry mixture into pie crust, leaving about 1/4-inch space between top of filling and top edge of pie crust.
• Mix oats and 1/2 cup brown sugar together in a bowl; sprinkle over blackberry filling. Cover pie with second pie crust. Cut off excess edges from top crust and fold bottom crust edges over top crust edges, pinching to form a seal. Cut 2 slits in the top of crust for ventilation.
• Place pie on the middle rack of the oven, centered over the baking sheet on the bottom rack to catch drips. Bake pie until crust starts turning golden, about 25 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until entire crust is golden brown, about 40 more minutes.
