If you're leery of making jam because you don't want to go to the
trouble of canning, consider this easy-to-make freezer jam. Cook the
fruit with sugar and spice, spoon it into freezer containers and put it
away. A few months down the road you'll be very glad you did. Remove
from heat and stir in cinnamon. Pour jam into plastic freezer
containers and place cinnamon stick in center of each. Let stand until
cool. Cover jam and store in freezer. Makes about 3 2/3 cups.
