Tomato Jam

This Easy Tomato Jam is the perfect condiment to slather on toast, sandwiches, and everything in between. All you have to do is throw everything in a pot, let it simmer, and you’re done.

It’s tomato season! For more awesome ways to use fresh tomato, check out this Chilled Cucumber Tomato Salad, this One Pot Fresh Tomato Pasta, and this Caprese Sandwich with Basil.

Homemade Tomato Jam

If there’s anything you do with all those leftover tomatoes this summer, make this tomato jam! It’s the perfect combination of sweet and savory, and goes with pretty much anything. We love to slather it on toast with a runny fried egg, snuggle it into plain turkey sandwiches, and serve it alongside grilled chicken.

Bonus? It’s a virtually fool-proof, hand-free recipe. All you have to do is throw everything in a pot and let it do its thing until the tomatoes break down and are perfectly jammy and sweet.

Overhead photo of the ingredients in the tomato jam.

Ingredients in Tomato Jam:

  • Tomatoes. If you have a ton of leftover heirloom tomatoes you need to get rid of, of course you can use those, but tomato jam is best purposed for those less sweet Roma tomatoes.
  • Vinegar. Ever jam needs a little bit of acid, and while you could use pretty much any vinegar you have on hand, we went with apple cider vinegar. It has the perfect amount of sweet and acidic flavor, plus it’s super affordable.
  • Lemon. To me, lemon and tomato go hand in hand, so we add just a little bit in addition to the apple cider vinegar.
  • Onion and garlic. You won’t always find onion and garlic in a tomato jam recipe, but I really like the extra flavor and texture they both add to the tomato jam.
  • Spices. For a smoky, warm flavor, we add both ground cinnamon and ground cumin. Just enough to add a little bit of flavor, but not enough for it to be singled out.
  • Sugar. Another really important ingredient in our tomato jam. Sugar of course, adds sweetness to the tomato jam, but it’s also necessary to balance out all the acid in the tomatoes, vinegar, and lemon juice.

Let’s Make Some Jam!

Guys. This is SO easy. Here’s how it goes down.

  • Chop the tomatoes. You’ll want to take out the core of each tomato, but leave the seeds and skin.
  • Add tomatoes, vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, spices, salt, onion, and garlic to a large pot. Stir.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, and reduce to a simmer.
  • Cook until jammy and sweet and savory and delicious!

Substitutions, Tips and Tricks for Recipe Success:

  • While our recipe does call for Roma tomatoes, if you have leftover tomatoes, then by all means, use what you have!
  • If you only have apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, you can use one or the other.
  • Apple cider vinegar can be swapped out for white wine vinegar or sherry vinegar.
  • Stir frequently to prevent the tomatoes from burning or sticking.
  • Season properly! In addition to the teaspoon of salt the recipe calls for, you will also have to adjust to your taste. I like things on the saltier side, so I always end up adding a half teaspoon or so more.Tomato jam in a clean can jar with a wooden spoon on the side with tomato jam on it.

Uses for Tomato Jam:

  • Spread whole-grain toast with whipped ricotta cheese and tomato jam
  • Spoon tomato jam on top of brie and bake in a 375-degree oven until brie is melted, about 15 minutes.
  • Spoon tomato jam on top of burrata cheese and serve with toasted crostini.
  • Slather tomato jam on whole-wheat bread with Boursin cheese and thick-cut roasted turkey.
  • Serve alongside scrambled eggs and toast.

Making Tomato Jam with Pectin:

If you want a more jell-like texture, you can add a tablespoon of pectin to the mixture. Boil for 1-2 minutes and then let cool.

Zucchini is my favorite summer vegetable. It is one of the best garden vegetables and grows abundantly for everyone to share. I love how easy this bread is to make and comes together so quickly.

  • All Purpose flour: Helps thicken the quick bread.
  • Cinnamon: Gives a hint of sweet and spicy flavoring.
  • Salt: Just a pinch.
  • Baking Soda: This will help the bread raise.
  • Unsweetened Cocoa Powder: Added chocolate flavoring to the bread
  • Canola Oil: The best type of oil for baking bread.
  • Sugar: Sweet the bread with white sugar.
  • Brown Sugar: Makes the bread moist and sweet.
  • Eggs: Works well with the baking soda and creates a higher rise in the baked bread.
  • Vanilla: Added for flavoring 
  • Sour Cream: Creates a moist and delicious inside.
  • Zucchini: The main ingredient! Fresh is best and shredded then strained from the water.
  • Mini Chocolate Chips: More chocolate!

Topping:

  • Brown Sugar and White Sugar: Delicious sweetness added on top!
  • Cinnamon: A sweet and spicy seasoning to add more flavoring.

How to Make Easy Chocolate Zucchini Bread:

It is easy to make and comes together quickly. This bread has the perfect blend of sweet with a healthy and twist of zucchini. Add in the chocolate and be even more amazed!

  1. Prepare Bread Pans: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour a large 9″ bread pan and set aside. Mix topping ingredients and set aside.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, cocoa powder in a small bowl until combined. Set aside.
  3. Mix Together: In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, beat together sugars, oil, and eggs for about 1-2 minutes until slightly fluffy. Add vanilla and sour cream.
  4. Add in Zucchini: Fold in the grated zucchini. Add the remaining dry flour ingredients. Stir to combine and lastly fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Pour Bread Batter: Pour into prepared 9″ bread pan. Sprinkle the topping on the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes. I set a time for 45 minutes and mine was done at that time. Oven temperatures vary, so just make sure a toothpick entered in the center comes clean.
  6. Serve When Cooled: Let cool for about 5-10 minutes and remove from pan. Delicious served a little warm, even with a little butter on top.

The process of making chocolate zucchini bread.

Preparing Fresh Zucchini:

Fresh zucchini is best when making this chocolate quick bread. I love to have fresh picked zucchini or bought from the store. Either way, this zucchini bread is always a hit!

  • Summer or Fall Season: This bread is best made with the freshest zucchini vegetable. If possible, use a home grown zucchini rather than a store bought zucchini. Zucchini is best picked from the garden in the summer or fall season.
  • Grating Zucchini: Cut the ends off the zucchini and do not peel if you would prefer. Use a grater to grate with the skin on or off. Fresh zucchini is very moist and watery. This will increase the breads moistness as it bakes as well.
  • Drain Moisture: Place the grated zucchini in a sieve or several paper towels. Discard any excess liquid from the zucchini the best that you can. Let it sit while combining ingredients.
  • Dry Zucchini: Add some water to the zucchini to help moisten the zucchini before adding it to the bread batter.

Variations and Substitutions:

Create your perfect bread using these variations and substitutions. Enjoy chocolate zucchini bread just the way you like it!

  • Add Water: If you notice your zucchini is not moist. Either add 1 to 2 Tablespoons to the bread batter or soak the shredded zucchini for a few minutes before adding it to the bread batter.
  • Flour: White flour is best. If you are wanting a whole wheat flour use half and half flour.
  • Cocoa: Make sure to use natural unsweetened cocoa powder to help activate the baking soda. Do not use dutch process cocoa for this chocolate bread.
  • Sugar: Add a little more sugar (3/4 cup) to make a sweeter bread.
  • Yogurt: Substitute sour cream for a low fat plain greek yogurt. Vanilla flavor will also work or non greek yogurt.
  • Chocolate Chips: Add in peanut butter chips or white chocolate chips for a variation. Chocolate chips are a must for this bread to become sweater and more flavorful.
  • Slicing Bread: Let the bread cool before slicing the bread. It is best to slice the chocolate zucchini bread with a bread knife. Slice zucchini bread with a bread knife.

Storing Homemade Zucchini Bread:

There are a few ways to store zucchini bread. The trick is, to try and have left overs. This quick bread goes fast and is a great snack or dessert for everyone around!

  • Storing Chocolate Zucchini Bread: Storing the bread in a ziplock bag at room temperature will work perfectly. This will last about 3 to 4 days long.
  • Freezing a Loaf of Bread: Tightly wrap the zucchini bread in plastic wrap. Place in a ziplock bag and place in the freezer for 1 month. When ready to serve, thaw at room temperture over night. This will last for about 2 to 3 days at room temperature.

A short list of no-fuss ingredients come together to make the most decadent cheesecake.  For the best results, make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature before you begin the recipe.   This will prevent the cheesecake from cracking, and give you a perfectly smooth and creamy filling.

  • Brown sugar: Mix together with butter and graham crackers to make a sweet and buttery crust.
  • Butter: Binding agent to hold together the crust.
  • Cream cheese: Mild and tangy flavor and smooth texture for the filling.

Steps to make no bake cheesecake.

Variations for Homemade Cheesecake:

No Bake cheesecake is less dense and heavy than baked cheesecakes.  It is incredibly delicious, light and tasty!  Here are my ideas for how to create a variety of inspired twists on this one amazing recipe!

  • Design: Prepare the cheesecake in a parchment paper lined 8×8 dish.  Then, after chilling in the refrigerator lift the cheesecake out with the parchment paper and cut the cheesecake into small squares for bite sized treats.  Even dip them in chocolate for a smooth outer shell and professional looking presentation.  Or prepare them in small cups or a mini muffin pan for smaller servings you don’t have to slice.
  • Toppings: Add whipped cream and fresh fruit for extra sweetness and color. Strawberries are a favorite, but raspberries, blueberries, or any fruit that’s in season make great toppings.  Also try sauces like lemon curd, freezer jam, homemade salted caramel sauce, or chocolate syrup.
  • Filling: Add a bit of sour cream for even more tangy flavor and creaminess. Or for a small crunch try adding in some crushed oreos, sprinkles (a hit with kids) or chocolate shavings.
  • Crust: To change up the flavor try using chocolate or cinnamon sugar graham crackers or crushed oreos in the crust.

Can you Freeze Strawberry Cheesecake?

Yes!  Before decorating, wrap your no bake cheesecake in heavy duty aluminum foil, plastic wrap, or place in a shallow airtight container.  Then store it in the freezer for up to 3 months.  Thaw it in the refrigerator and add toppings before serving.  It will remain good for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
