Avocado toast on repeat? Time for an upgrade! With this tomato jam<\/strong>, your bread gets a whole new flavor kick \u2013 fruity, sweet, savory. Perfect as a spread, dip, or even a fun addition to an antipasti platter.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n Given the name of my blog Veggie Jam<\/em>, it felt only right to finally share a jam made from veggies \u2013 or in this case, tomato jam. Okay, technically tomatoes are fruit (we all know that by now), but let\u2019s just roll with it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To be honest, I wasn\u2019t sure how I\u2019d feel about a savory jam<\/strong>. I\u2019ve always associated jam with something sweet. But this one instantly won me over: it\u2019s sweet-meets-savory, perfectly spiced, and incredibly easy to make.<\/strong> Since this homemade tomato jam recipe doesn\u2019t use refined sugar or added pectin, it won\u2019t have that super-thick texture of classic jam \u2013 it\u2019s a little looser, which I actually love.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n For this delicious and <\/strong>quick tomato jam, you only need seven simple ingredients<\/strong> \u2013 spices included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The real star, of course, is the tomato. I\u2019ve tested this tomato jam recipe with both cherry Roma tomatoes<\/strong> and regular cherry tomatoes,<\/strong> and both versions get two thumbs up from me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To round things out, you\u2019ll add apple cider vinegar, garlic, <\/strong>a touch of maple syrup,<\/strong> plus cumin, sweet paprika, salt, and pepper<\/strong>. That\u2019s it \u2013 simple pantry staples turning into the most flavorful homemade tomato jam.<\/p>\n\n\n Making tomato jam is easy-peasy!<\/strong> In just about 30 minutes, you\u2019ll have it on the (breakfast) table \u2013 and most of that time is completely hands-off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s how to make tomato jam step by step:<\/p>\n\n\n\n And if you come up with other fun ways to use this savory tomato jam to upgrade your meals, drop them in the comments \u2013 I\u2019d love to hear your ideas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n I recommend to go for a tomato jam with cherry tomatoes, because of their naturally sweet, rich flavor. But feel free to use other varieties \u2013 the key is that they\u2019re ripe and flavorful.<\/p> <\/div> Up to 7 days in the fridge. For longer storage, you\u2019d need canning \u2013 but this is a simple no canning tomato jam recipe.<\/p> <\/div> Absolutely. For a sugar-free tomato jam, simply leave out the maple syrup. In that case, I recommend using cherry tomatoes, since they\u2019re naturally sweeter and more aromatic than most other varieties.<\/p> <\/div> Yes, you can! Just don\u2019t grab the cheapest can on the shelf. Italian varieties like San Marzano or organic canned tomatoes have much more flavor, making them perfect for making tomato jam.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n If you give this tasty cherry tomato jam a try, let me know in the comments below.
