Wash your fruit. Chop fruit UNPEELED in blender or food processor. Add sugar and cinnamon and cook until the mixture begins to 'plop' the bubbles will rise to the surface and slowly pop and make that plopping noise as they pop. Then place in hot jars, place hot lids and screw the rings on. (My mom taught me to put the washed clean jars on a cookie sheet in the oven at 250 degees and the lids in a pan of water on the stove on med low. The heat will seal the jars and you'll hear pings when they seal)
It's the best jam - yum.
