So I’ve created a Blackberry Skillet Jam to share with you guys. And it just happens to pair nicely with the Orange Scone (pictured below) recipe found in Gather.Bottom line….you need this BOOK
Blackberry Skillet Jam
Ingredients:
6 ounces fresh blackberries
2 tablespoons filtered water
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
just a squeeze of lemon juice (about 1 teaspoon or more to taste)
Method:
1. Add the blackberries and water to a 6 inch skillet or small sauce pan. Cook over medium heat for a few minutes till the berries start to release some of their water then mash them up with a fork.
2. Add the honey and lemon juice, then bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 5-8 minutes or until the mixture starts to thicken. Stir constantly toward the end of the cooking, pulling the spoon across the pan. You’ll know it’s about done when you pull the spoon through the jam and it takes a few seconds for it to fill the space back in. https://travelwithgirls.com/
3.Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Jam will continue to thicken as it cool.
Makes about 1/4 cup and can easily be doubled, tripled and so on. I have no idea how long this jam keeps as it is always consumed within seconds of leaving the skillet….sometimes before it leaves the skillet.
mmmmmmmm would love!
That looks so yummy!
Is gather paleo? Cos those scones sure look like the 'real' thing!!
Yes it is Paleo/Primal. These were the best scones I've ever had….I was even a little jealous they weren't my recipe, haha!
Can't wait to make the scones, and I love all your recipes too, big time!
This looks amazing! I love making jam and have put it off now that our house is mostly Paleo. Thank you!
Just had to take a minute to say your photos have been absolutely incredible lately!!! I absolutely adore the dark backgrounds. Of course this jam looks incredible too. I have to try this!!
Thank you!!!
You had me at orange scones.
I'll have to buy some blackberries this week & try this jam!
These look absolutely divine… wow. Would you recommend this book to someone who needs to limit starch intake (tapioca, potato, arrowroot, etc.) Thanks for the giveaway and all that you do!
There are plenty of starch free recipes in this book but not all of them are.
Thanks 🙂 are the scones in this post among the starch free recipes?
These scones were not starch free. I have a starch free scone on the blog though. If you'd like to check that out. http://urbanposer.blogspot.com/2011/05/apple-ginger-and-spice-scones_9751.html
Blackberries are on sale this week at my local grocers and this recipe is on the agenda. It's been too cold in our area so the wild blackberries aren't growing as fast as I'd like them to. But, then again, the bear would probably get them before I do. Thank you for sharing.
Omg, i love orange scones! And that blackberry jam looks divine. I want some right now!
This is amazing:) I love it!
This looks incredible and simple. Can't wait to try, will pin for later.
I love this site & will make these!
I am making this as soon as I'm done with Whole 30! I'm so happy that James from I'm No Chef recommended you to me! It's so nice to find beautiful paleo blogs! I look forward to reading more of your recipes and hope you get a chance to check out my (paleo-ish) blog!

I JUST made my boys "regular" scones from Deb at Smitten Kitchen (Dreamy Cream Scones!) and was SO sad I couldn't eat one (I've had them before going Paleo and they are the best I have ever had). So I decide to do some paleo food porn viewing and end up at your site (because your porn is so good!) and I see these scones and think how much they look like the Dreamy Cream scones I have in the oven. So I ordered Gather simply because of your pics of the scones! LOL I'm sure Bill and Haley won't disappoint in everything else though since I love my Make It Paleo cookbook!
Made the orange scones and the skillet jam, today. AMAZING! I too bought the Gather book based on this post and another with a picture of the cake from the book. The scone texture is really nice, I've made other paleo scones and they were good, but had sort of a spongy texture. These were much more like true scones. Somehow they even had a buttery-ness to them even though there is not butter 🙂
