I love me a good jam one some toast or croissant. The fennel in this blueberry jam brings out the sweetness in the berries. You can use fresh or frozen blueberries to make this jam. There is no pectin in this recipe for blueberry jam, so all you need are a handful of ingredients and you’ll be on your way to making this unique blueberry jam recipe!
