Sugar Free Strawberry Jam Recipe
Today, I'm thrilled to share with you a delightful recipe for Sugar-Free Strawberry Jam.
Equipment
- Large saucepan
- Wooden spoon
- Potato masher
- Glass jars with lids for storage
Ingredients
- 2 pounds of fresh strawberries
- 1/4 cup of lemon juice
- 1/2 cup of a natural sugar substitute (like Stevia or Erythritol)
- 2 tablespoons of chia seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: Wash and hull the strawberries, then chop them into small pieces.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large saucepan, add the chopped strawberries, lemon juice, and your chosen sugar substitute. Stir well to combine.
- Cook the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally and use a potato masher to break down the strawberries as they cook. Simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency.
- Add Chia Seeds: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chia seeds. These will help the jam set. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes.
- Store in Jars: Transfer your sugar-free strawberry jam into clean, dry glass jars while it's still warm. Seal them tightly with lids.
