raspberry jam with no pectin

[cjnix29]

anyone have a recipe for this? I don't want to go to the store and buy any if I don't have to. Picked the raspberries out of our thicket, and now want to make some freezer jam. I know I saw one online once, but I can't find the recipe now with my searches!

If you do a Google search for raspberry jam no pectin, you'll find many recipes:

All the recipes are pretty much the same - 4 cups fruit, 4 cups sugar.

I believe lemon juice also helps jam set up without added pectin. Something about the acid mixing with the fruit's natural pectin.
