Steps to make Pumpkin Jam:

1. If using fresh pumpkin, cut in half, take out seeds, and roast until tender.

2. Once cooled, puree roasted pumpkin until smooth and then add six cups to large pan over medium/high heat.

3. Next add apple cider, lemon, vanilla, and spices. Mix well.

4. Bring mixture to light boil and reduce heat to medium temperature stirring often so the bottom doesn't burn.
