Have you ever had Pumpkin Jam? I personally love it and I also love the fact that it is really easy to make. This version also has a hint of freshly grated ginger to it, and I think it works really well with the pumpkin flavour. You can use this jam to make tarts, pies, cookies, or simply enjoy it by spreading it on a slice of toast for your breakfast! It is the best jam to have in autumn! Try it and let me know what you think.
