Tomatoes are one of my summer obsessions. If you really want to know what else I’m obsessed with, it would be tomatoes in the winter, too. 

Tomatoes grow like crazy here in the winter in Arizona. You’ll see very slow, snail-speed growth int he summer that makes you almost want to pull your hair out.

Why are my tomatoes so … so, stagnant? (If you want to know why, it’s because it’s really too hot for them! They are just trying to survive day to day…)

Once the weather changes from hot to not so hot – which is usually around November/early December, they take off. You’ll literally be swimming in tomatoes in the middle of winter.

This is an excellent way to use them!

Can you make jam with tomatoes?

Tomato Jam is not a new thing – in fact, tomatoes make some of the most savory jam varieties you could ever make. Cherry tomatoes also make wonderful confit, too. Both jam and confit spread on toasted sourdough – yum and yum.

This recipe is easy, fast, and tastes terrific. I love to spread hummus on toasted sourdough, then top it with Smoky Tomato Chipotle Jam. It’ll take your toast to a whole new level of deliciousness.

Here are some other ways to use this jam:

  • As a sandwich spread
  • Topped on your breakfast eggs
  • Next to your favorite steak or chicken recipe
  • As a topper on your favorite grain bowl
  • As a condiment on your cheeseboard

Smoky Tomato Chipotle Jam

This jam comes together quickly and easily with just a few main ingredients:

  • onion
  • tomatoes – garden tomatoes or cherry tomatoes, both will work
  • chipotle chiles
  • adobo sauce from your chipotle chiles
  • spices of paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper
  • brown sugar

Cut your tomatoes (if you are using cherry tomatoes, simply slice them in half) and set aside. Sauté the onion in olive oil until soft, then add the remaining ingredients to your shallow skillet or medium pot and bring to a boil.

Turn the heat down to a simmer and allow the mixture to cook down to a thick consistency. Once it has thickened (45 min to 1 hour), transfer to half pint jars. Place your canning lid and ring atop each jar and allow to cool before refrigerating.

Can you can this recipe?

I did not can this recipe. Since it made just 2 half pints, I opted to store it in the fridge. If you choose to can it, you’ll want to contact Ball Canning to determine if the recipe is safe for canning.

  • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce finely minced
  • 1 Tbsp adobo sauce from chipotle pepper can

  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  • In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onion in olive oil until softened.

Notes

Adjust the chipotle peppers based on your preference.
