Nectarine and Blueberry Pie Filling

Or ice cream topping...or crepe filling. Mmmmm. You can change the amounts of blueberries vs. nectarines. Just make your total fruit 6 quarts. You may have to adjust the sugar, then.

4 1/2 quarts of peeled, pitted, cubed nectarines
1 1/2 quarts blueberries, I used frozen from Costco
6 cups sugar
2 cups plus 2 Tbsp. Clear Jel
1 tsp. cinnamon
5 1/4 cups water (If your fruit is super juicy, drain some juice off and use it in place of some water)
1 1/2 cups lemon juice

In a saucepan, mix sugar, clear jel, and cinnamon. Stir in water. Stir over medium heat until it thickens and begins to bubble. Add lemon juice and boil 1 minute. Fold in fruit and continue to heat for 3 minutes. Immediately fill jars, leaving 1 inch headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe jar rims. Adjust lids and process immediately in a Boiling Water Bath.
