Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium-sized fresh mangoes
- 1 cup erythritol
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Peel the mangoes and remove the flesh from the seed. Dice the mango flesh into small cubes.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the diced mango, erythritol, lemon juice, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to ensure the erythritol dissolves completely and to prevent sticking.
Once the mixture starts to simmer, reduce the heat to low and allow it to cook for about 15-20 minutes until the mango becomes soft and the liquid has reduced slightly.
Using a potato masher or an immersion blender, gently mash the mango pieces until you reach your desired consistency. For a smoother jam, blend more thoroughly.
Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the mixture and stir well to combine. This will help thicken the jam.
Continue to simmer the mixture for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it reaches a thick and jam-like texture.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the jam cool slightly.
Transfer the jam into sterilized glass jars and allow it to cool completely before sealing and storing in the refrigerator.
Enjoy your keto-friendly mango jam within 2 weeks, spreading it over your favorite keto-friendly snacks.
