Haskap Berry Jam Recipe (Sugar Free)
This homemade haskap berry jam is low in sugar, high in antioxidants and is great eaten on toast, waffles, bannock and muffins.
Equipment
- Large pot
- Wooden spoon
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Mason jars with lids
Ingredients
- 7 cups fresh or frozen haskap berries (roughly 1000 g)
- 1 package gelatin powder (2 teaspoons or 10 g)
Instructions
- Measure out your fresh or frozen haskap berries and add them to your large pot.
- Simmer your berries on low heat until the berries have reduced and started to thicken. This takes around 45 minutes or so. Make sure to stir the berries often.
- Once your berries have reduced and thickened, you can prepare your gelatin mixture. Add 1 pouch of gelatin powder (2 teaspoons or 10 g) to 5 teaspoons of hot (not boiling) water and mix with a fork until there are no remaining chunks.
- Add your gelatin mixture to your berries and stir it in with a whisk.
- Turn off the heat and let your jam cool.
- Once your jam has cooled, you can scoop it into your Mason jars. This recipe makes approximately 3 cups of jam.
- Disclaimer: This does not include instructions on preserving and canning your jam. Make sure to keep your jam in an airtight container in the fridge for up to roughly 1 week. Or if you'd like to have it last longer, you can freeze it in an airtight container. Do not store this jam at room temperature.
