Slightly burnt taste and smell. Can I save by adding something?

I believe it will be difficult to remove all the burnt taste, but you may be able to add small amounts to outer foods and still salvage some of it.
BBQ sauce is probably the best bet, but be careful, only add small amounts before giving it the taste test.
I've read some suggestions that adding a little cinnamon helped, but I would caution you to only add a small amount before stirring and tasting.
Hopefully, you did not stir the bottom because that is usually where most of the strong burnt taste comes from.
Be sure to keep it refrigerated as much as possible.
One of my vintage cookbooks says to add several slices of potato, cook until potato is done, remove potato and enjoy! Who knows - it might work.
I think I would try to convert it into a barbecue sauce instead. You could hide the burnt taste with savory ingredients and spices.
I'll be interested to see what other suggestions you receive. Hope you can make something out of it.
You will not get rid of the burnt taste. Discard this batch and watch more carefully next time.
You could mix it with any other jam to dilute any burnt taste.
I like idea to turn it into a fruit sauce, for example, for Christmas Barbecues (label it). Add vinegar, some blackcurrants, garlic, finely chopped onion and ginger, allspice, mixed spice, heaps of fresh chilies.
Maybe use it in a tart with fresh plums. This recipe sounds pretty good: www.marthastewart.com/
