How to make cherry plum jam
Before you start cooking, prepare the ingredients.
Wash the cherry plum, let the water drain, and separate it into two halves with a knife.

Pour the berries into this syrup, mix and leave for 2 hours.
Place our future jam in an oven preheated to 150 degrees. You need to cook it for 1 hour 30 minutes, stir it 2-3 times during cooking so as not to burn. Add ground cinnamon about 15 minutes before the end of cooking.
