Canning Pear Butter 

Prayers for you and your family.

Hint: Try using your pear butter as a ham glaze instead of the normal cherry or sugar glazes when making a holiday ham.

The work that goes into it is amazing...yet when it is all said and done knowing the food is safe is well worth it!

Never had pear butter, but saw it on a video of things you love to can and I decided I’m to make some this summer! Praying for you.

Praying you and your family up, sweet Heather! :)

Just look at the fruit of your hard labor! Beautiful jars. I enjoyed this video so much, and was touched when you talked about your mom. Hey, I grew up in Detroit too. Thank you for making us feel so welcomed in your kitchen! Looking forward to the next video.

Honey I just have to tell you how much I'm loving your channel. I just found you recently and I'm so overjoyed!! I love that you take the time to do step by step instructions and understand that everyone is new to "something." You're just a doll. I love, love, love it!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. My story is similar to yours though I'm a grandma 👵🏼 now! (Geesh! When did that happen? LOL) I grew up in the inner city of Dayton, Ohio when parents divorced. When I got to be a momma myself I was determined as you are to make sure my girls had everything they needed and a lot of what they wanted too. I did a lot of "make ahead freezer meals" then. Now I've gotten back to my roots when I'd visit my dad in TN, his grandmother canned. So I'm learning now and trying to teach my adult daughters who LOVE IT! So again, thank you! Thank you for taking so much time out of what I know is an already busy day when you have littles. 😍 Sorry I rambled a bit too. Take care. God Bless you and your beautiful family. ~Lisa

You really create a sense of family here. It's much appreciated along with being encouraging for noobs like myself! xoxo

Love this video! Thank you. Love to listen to your stories. Don’t apologize. I remember being hungry sometimes so I tend to overbuy food at times.

You are really inspiring me to start canning- and I never thought of it before finding you channel!

This looks so good! and Simple too. I NEED to try it. I also NEED that jar grabber! I do enjoy watching the whole canning process instead of missing clips here and there. I totally agree. Canning is very relaxing and it is an awesome hobby! I LOVE the feeling of a full panty ESPECIALLY when It is something that I made myself. I grew up poor too. Which is how I learned to cook a good meal from nearly nothing. I remember the same thing when I was a kid. My mom said she was not hungry and we would eat. NOW I know what was going on. Anyway, sorry for the long post. lol I was writing bits here and there as the video went on. Love your videos! and I think we share a LOVE for breadmaking. I was kneading dough today and was saying "wow...this is the prettiest dough.." and hubby thought I was crazy. haha!

Love being in the kitchen with you too! The pear butter was fun. Eagerly anticipating the jelly and the apple sauce.

The bottled lemon juice has the acidic consistency :) I always use it.

Beautiful you you turned old school like us. we could not be more prouder of you. so hap[py about your channel. hugs love. Deborah

I took all the doors off my pantry & kitchen cabinets because I love seeing all my canned jars of food. It gives me a sense of pride and accomplishment.

I made and canned apple butter once and it was SOOO good! I need to try this too!

Maybe pull your camera out a bit so we can see you too! I tried this pear butter on my own and am glad i came here because I wasn't sure about how much lemon juice to put in. GREAT STUFF! THANKS HEATHER,I AM GLAD YOU ARE GETTING WELL! BLESSINGS TO YOU AND THE KIDS! I love hearing Mena and Mason in the back ground ( or maybe it's just Mason I don't know if Mena was born yet on this video!

yum! Pear, apple and pumpkin butter are my favorites!!! you have been missed!!!! glad to see you baccckk! lol

Wow that pear butter looks so delicious. I love that spice mix. Can't get it here but I can imagine how nice it would taste. Good job.

Healing prayers for you and your family 🙏🙏🌻🌻❤️

If you leave the lid ajar on the crockpot the water will evaporate and your butter will turn out thicker.

Yes canning book : 4 C sugar 1/2 C water 1/2 tsp nutmeg 1/3 C orange juice 1/2 & pint jars is only 10 minutes Thanks for the vid.

I saw this on FB earlier today in a group I'm a member of! Crazy pretty dark color, mine is really lite in color. I have a old pear honey recipe that is insane good...I wonder if those vids are still up? You know you've been a tuber too long when you forget which vids are still up!! LOL!! Looks good girl!

Looks yummy, Thanks Heather! 💙

thank you for showing the whole process. I have not canned anything, I do plan on trying to can a few things once we move. =) These videos are great especially for a newbie like me =)

They don't like the sweet and sour? I guess it's a result of growing up in the middle of the country. I've liked it ever since I was a kid. It's got so little ginger in it I didn't even know any was in there. I never saw it with the sauce on the side until I came here from California. The breading gets a little soggy as it sits in the sauce, so there's an advantage to having it on the side, but I miss having it in the sauce. The ones that don't put the sauce on the side also add pineapple chunks (oohbaby) and onions and bell peppers (I can do without the peppers).

This looks so good. I've canned apple butter before. Now I'll have to try this.

My mouth is watering!

I love pears

looks wonderful! what is the difference between pear sauce (like applesauce) and pear butter? the ingredients & process look the same to this newbie canner so l’m not sure what l am missing. maybe “butter” is cooked longer to reduce & make thicker??

I know this video is quite old, but I just stumbled upon your channel and have been binge watching ;) My question is what is the processing time for the pear butter? And also say your processing time is 10 minutes if you accidentally over process say by 5 minutes will that effect the finished product?

Oh how my hubby LOVES Fruit butters, I will be making your recipe, can't wait.... I can almost smell it from here. :o) And just a heads up, I have always used bottled lemon juice to can with, as fresh lemons, although super yummy, are not the same in their PH like you can get in bottled, , so, .. better to use bottled. :o) you rock Missy...

Thanks for the video. I too don't care for the taste of ginger so am glad I stumbled upon your site. How much sugar did you use?

There has to be an auto-focus setting in that camera. It'd be very unusual for a camera not to have that. Edit - Apparently only the T4i has auto-focus for video :/

❤️

Watching and praying for you and your family.❤❤🤗🤗😇😇

Heather Cant wait to make this. Looks delicious 😘👌, Thank you for sharing I appreciate you So Much 😘🙏🤗 Thank yoy 😘😘 Linda from Ct

Yum 😋 this looks so good !! Trying to watch all your videos hopefully this helps you just don’t know if u get anything for me watching or if u get anything if I would skip the ads ???

💝

About to try this recipe, how was it? Did you like it did you make it again? How did the kids like it?

lovin your channel. :)

can I leave the skin OK? :-!

Can we do it on the stove to quicken the process?

If you have a link to the Ball Jar Grabber you use that would be Great. You gave a link to the Canning Scoop you use and I’m waiting for it to arrive. And I would appreciate if you would give me a name of a good Pressure Canner to purchase. Thank You Very Much…I Appreciate Your Help.

One more question for You or Anyone who can Help! A friend gave me some pears but they are Hard and they are called Winter Pears. Can I use them now and use an immersion blender while cooking or do I wrap them up, put downstairs in a cool place and wait till Winter and hope they soften and ripen up?

What stove is best to pressure can on ? Mine is gas seems to not get hot enough ??

I am new at canning and i am running short on the smaller cans. Can I make a half gallon then when ready to split into smaller jars I can split the gallon? Is this an acceptable thing to do?

Where can I find that jar holder? The one where you got the jars out of the oven with? Plus the mat?

Loved this video, I'm learning so much from you thank you :-) What would be the shelf life for the Pear butter?

First, I love your videos. I am not sure if this was the particular video, but did you say you could actually can in an Instapot? If so, could you talk about that and maybe even do a video? Thanks so much.

What kind of pears are they?

Yummm. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

❤️💞

Are these jars half-pint or pint size?

🍐💙💙💙

can you sub apples for this?

❤
