What do you make when life hands you a crappy pineapple?  You make jam.  And then I made my Coco Pazzo Bread to put it on. Oh, and don’t forget the butter. Never forget the butter.

INGREDIENTS

2 cups fresh pineapple (mashed in blender)

1 cup water

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 cup sugar

DIRECTIONS

Mix all ingredients in a medium saucepan and cook over medium high heat until it is a thick syrup that wrinkles across a plate when pulled with your finger. Takes about an hour. Check to see if it is done by putting a plate in the refrigerator to chill.  Take it out, put a teaspoon of jam on plate and put in freezer for approx 2 minutes.  If you drag your finger through it and it wrinkles on the sides then it is done.  Carefully put it into jar and seal.
