Ingredients
- 2 pounds fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsps lemon juice
- 2 tbsps cornstarch
- 3 tbsps water
Instructions
- Add strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice to the Instant Pot inner liner and set it for ten minutes. The sugar will draw juice from the strawberries.
- Close the lid and set the steam release valve to high.
- Cook on high pressure for 1 minute. Let the steam naturally release for 15 minutes. If pressure is left, use the quick-release setting to instantly remove the built-up pressure.
- Combine cornstarch and cool water until a paste forms.
- Open the Instant Pot lid and add the cornstarch slurry. Stir until the slurry dissolves into the strawberries.
- Keeping the lid raised, saute until the mixture comes to a boil.
- Store the jam in sanitary jars.
