I think this might be what you want. Enjoy. Joyce

Using a pressure canner, how many minutes and at what pressure can this be canned? Thank you.
This recipe is intended for a water bath instead of a pressure canner. Most recipes are designed for one or the other, not both. The pressure could overcook the contents. Here is an article with more information about this.
