Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoons sugar substitute (like Stevia or Splenda)
- 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
In a large saucepan, combine the raspberries and water, then bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries have broken down completely.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the raspberry mixture cool slightly.
Using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, strain the raspberry mixture into a bowl, pressing down to extract as much juice as possible. Discard the solids.
Return the raspberry juice to the saucepan and place it over low heat.
Stir in the sugar substitute and lemon juice, ensuring they are fully dissolved in the juice.
In a small bowl, soak the unflavored gelatin in 1/4 cup of water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.
Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm raspberry juice mixture, stirring constantly until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Pour the mixture into a clean glass jar or mold and allow it to cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, cover the jar and refrigerate the jelly for at least 4 hours or until it's set completely.
Serve the sugar-free raspberry jelly as a spread on toast or as a topping for desserts.
