Real Jam
An easy no sugar recipe that will have you experimenting with all types of new jams to add to your almond butter sandwiches!
- 1 1/2 quarts fresh berries
- 1 cup unsweetened fruit juice concentrate
- I like organic apple juice
- 2 tsp. pectin powder
- 3/4 tsp. powdered stevia extract
Wash, rinse, and sterilize jars.
Clean berries, remove hulls, and mash.
(One and one half quarts of fresh berries will be 3 cups mashed.)
Place in a suace pan.
Add 4 tsp purified water to the berries and stir well.
In another small sauce pan bring the juice concentrate to a boil.
Place in a blender and allow to cool slightly.
Add 2 tsp of pectin powder and blend 1 - 2 minutes until powder is dissolved.
Bring fruit to a boil.
Add the dissolved pectin.
Stir vigorously 1 minute.
Stir in the stevia extract. Bring back to a boil and remove from heat.
Fill jars to 1/2 inch from the top. Screw on 2 piece lids. Boil 5 minutes.
Remove from water and let jars cool. Lids should pop to be sealed.
