Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 0.5 cup powdered erythritol
- 0.25 cup water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
Instructions
Start by washing the raspberries thoroughly under cool running water. Gently pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the raspberries, powdered erythritol, and water.
Set the saucepan over medium heat and stir the mixture occasionally. As the raspberries begin to break down, use a spoon or a potato masher to crush them and release their juices.
Bring the mixture to a slow boil, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes, or until the mixture begins to thicken.
Add the lemon juice and unflavored gelatin to the pan. Stir well to ensure that the gelatin is fully dissolved and well incorporated.
Continue to simmer for another 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the jam cool slightly.
Transfer the cooled raspberry jam to clean, sterilized jars. Allow it to cool completely before sealing the jars with lids.
Place the sealed jars in the refrigerator, and allow the jam to set for at least 4 hours before serving.
Store the jam in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or freeze it for up to 3 months for longer storage.
