The thought of making jam in my breadmaker seemed just too stupid to be true:- until I tried it. First I made a batch of apricot jam, and it is terrific. Just chop the fruit, add sugar then set and forget - no stirring; no sticking to the bottom of the saucepan; no burning the sugar. Afterward, the nonstick bread pan was a snap to clean. Next I made a terrific tomato ketchup from my home grown tomatoes - just use the jam setting - it tastes better than Heinz!
The handbook said not to add more than 600 gms of fruit, but I used more than 1 Kg in each case with no problem at all.
If like me, you thought 'this won't work' then I recommend you try it. Almost worth having a breadmaker just to make jams and sauces - it is so easy and foolproof.
