Spreading Smucker’s Traditions Giveaway

By on February 17, 2012 in Giveaway, Recipes

My family enjoys using  jams, jellies, fruit spreads and fruit butter as part of our meal time.  Spreading it on toast and hot butter rolls are some of the favorite ways we enjoy them.  We also like to use them with waffles, pancakes (especially the German version), scones, and don’t forget the traditional PB and J sandwiches.

I also like into incorporate  jams, jellies, fruit spreads and fruit butter into recipe too.  Here are some of my favorites.

Cherished family traditions often begin in the kitchen, and the makers of Smucker’s® jams, jellies, preserves, fruit spreads and fruit butters know a thing or two about bringing families together through wonderful meals.

    My favorite way to enjoy Smucker’s cherry preserves is with vanilla yogurt and granola mix for breakfast.

    I love them on toasted English Muffins!

    My favorite way to use jams and spreads is in thumb print cookies. We made some for Valentine’s day with Strawberry jam because it was red and festive! I loved making these simple cookies with my young children.

    I LOVE jelly on Pillsbury Grand dinner rolls!! YUM!!

    I usually have my jelly on toast but every so often, I put a dollop on a bowl of cream of wheat. Thanks for the chance to win…

    I like to put jam on biscuits… and I love strawberry preserves on my peanut butter sandwich

  13. Margaret February 19, 2012 at 3:39 pm #

    I love to add them to yogurt or to my oatmeal in the morning. I also will put them on top of cookie bars a lot instead of frosting.

  14. Kristy February 19, 2012 at 2:43 pm #

    I have nothing original to say :( but I am a pb and j kind of girl! But I am starting to adapt jelly to work as a filling for cupcakes or mix with cream cheese for a yummy fruity cream cheese.

    Sometimes I enjoy eating my Smuckers jam from the spoon!

  16. Erika February 19, 2012 at 4:28 am #

    Our absolute favorite ways to use Smuckers is to make “breakfast pizzas.” We usually make frozen waffles and then spread Strawberry jam for the sauce, on the top. We then lay sliced bananas on top of the jam, for “pepperoni” and if we want we cut up some strawberries for “tomatoes.” The kids love it and gobble it right up! Our favorite. We also slice it into triangles just like a real pizza.

    I love jam on homemade rolls.

  18. Natalie J Vandenberghe February 18, 2012 at 1:39 pm #

    I’m almost a little too embarrassed to admit this…but, I love eating Smucker’s right off the spoon! LOL
    Other than traditional ideas, such as enjoying the delicious fruit preserves on toast, I also love jam thumbprint cookies.
    Thanks for the giveaway.

    I like to make “turnovers” with crescent rolls … spread jelly on hot buttered biscuits and of course, PB&J!!

    I love jelly on homemade whole wheat bread fresh from the oven – so good!!!

  31. Amanda February 17, 2012 at 5:04 pm #

    I love jam/jelly on homemade whole wheat bread or your overnight crescent rolls, (which are not only MY go-to rolls now, but have become a favorite of my extended family!) And my kids LOVE jam/jelly on peanut butter sandwiches! Plus, I’m always finding recipes to try that include jam or jelly in one way or another.

  32. Heidi F. February 17, 2012 at 4:55 pm #

  36. Jenny February 17, 2012 at 3:43 pm #

    I love just plain Jelly toast.

  43. Dawn Blevins February 17, 2012 at 2:31 pm #

    I love to eat the classic peanut buter and jelly…but with a little twist. It may sound weird, but I like to grill it in a frying pan like you would a grilled cheese sandwich. it’s a little messy..you have to eat it with a fork, but so sinful.

  44. Casey C February 17, 2012 at 2:30 pm #

    I love jam on hot rolls.

  48. shirley elizabeth February 17, 2012 at 1:31 pm #

    Oh goodness, jam on fresh biscuits (with butter slathered on as well) is my favorite!
    Also, with my last visit to my Aunt’s house up in Idaho she made us milkshakes by blending up her homemade raspberry jam with ice cream. It was so good!

  49. Shell We February 17, 2012 at 1:26 pm #

    I love jams & jellie on nice warm biscuits, scones, & inside of crepes. I also use it in my homemade bbq sauces.

  50. Shelley C February 17, 2012 at 12:47 pm #

    I use jam only when I eat bagels…so good. I like to warm some up to drizzle on cheesecake too.

  51. joanna February 17, 2012 at 12:28 pm #

    I love jams on fresh biscuits :)

  52. Rechelle February 17, 2012 at 12:27 pm #

    ever since my children (who now have children of their own) have been small we have enjoyed toasted, buttered english muffins with grape jelly as an after school snack or for lazy Sunday mornings- it is still one of our favorite things to eat-
    and I remember my mother spreading jelly or jam into a buttered pie plate and then spacing canned biscuits over and baking- you turn them upside down when they come out of the oven and they are fabulous, warm or cold- one of her tasty ideas I passed on to my children-

  53. Kim February 17, 2012 at 12:19 pm #

    I have a jelly roll recipe that I love to use Smuckers Strawberry Preserves.

    I like jam on biscuits fresh out of the oven.

  56. Deana M February 17, 2012 at 11:57 am #

    My favorite way to enjoy is with butter on a toasted English muffin, but just on a spoon and into my mouth works well too!!

  57. Sue February 17, 2012 at 11:56 am #

    Love it on a toasted English Muffin…it gets in all the little nooks and crannies

    I love jam bars with a crumb topping!

  61. Bonnie February 17, 2012 at 9:46 am #

    I love the raspberry preserves on an open-faced pb&j sandwich (just the one piece of bread – better pb to jam ratio in my opinion!)

  62. Kelly Cook February 17, 2012 at 9:32 am #

    I love it on toast and with peanut butter!
