How to Make Mango Jam
- Cook the Mango. In a saucepan, combine diced mango, sugar, lime juice, and zest. Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves and mango softens.
- Simmer and Thicken. Reduce heat and simmer 20–25 minutes, stirring often, until thick and jam-like. Mash or blend for desired texture.
- Cool and Store. Let cool slightly, transfer to a clean jar, and refrigerate up to 2 weeks.
Storage and Freezing Instructions
To Store: Keep your mango jam in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
To Freeze: Pour cooled jam into freezer-safe containers, leaving a little space at the top. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before using.

How to make the most delicious homemade mango jam (with only 4 simple ingredients!).
Ingredients
- 2 cups diced mango
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tsp lime zest
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine diced mango, sugar, lime zest and lime juice.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mango starts to soften (about 5 minutes).
- Simmer gently over low to medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and reaches a jam-like consistency — about 20–25 minutes.
- Remove from the heat.
- Mash the mango with a fork or potato masher as it cooks, or use an immersion blender for a smoother texture.
- To check for doneness, drag a spoon through the jam — it should leave a trail that doesn’t immediately fill in.
- Let it cool slightly, then transfer to a clean jar. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
