Kiwi Sweet Pepper Jam

written by The Recipe Exchange | August 29, 2026

Ingredients

1 cup aji peppers minced (or any pepper of your choice)
1 cup kiwi crushed (about 3-4 ripe kiwis)
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tablespoons no-sugar pectin

Directions

Combine the minced peppers, crushed kiwi, and lime juice in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Give it a good stir.

Evenly sprinkle the pectin over the mixture and stir until it’s fully combined with no lumps.

Bring the mixture to a strong, rolling boil over medium-high heat. A rolling boil is one that you can’t stir down. Stir constantly for exactly one minute to activate the pectin.

Remove the saucepan from the heat. You might see some foam on top; carefully skim this off with a spoon for a clearer jam.

Let the jam cool for a few minutes in the pan, then carefully pour it into two clean 8-ounce jars.

Cover the jars and place them in the refrigerator to cool completely and set. It will thicken considerably as it chills. Enjoy!
