Ingredients:

• 1 kg of plums, pitted and chopped
• 500 g of sugar
• Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions:

1. In a large pot, combine the plums, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
2. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
3. Reduce the heat and simmer for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches a thick, jelly-like consistency.
