Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Rinse off and slice strawberries. Place in a blender or food processor and pulse to the desired consistency. 
  2. Put in a large bowl and add the sweetener. If you desire a sweeter jam add in more sweetener and less if you do not . Adjust to your taste.
  3. In a small saucepan add water and gently add in the low sugar pectin. Stir until completely dissolved, bring to a full boil while continuing to stir.
  4. Bring to a rolling, hard boil and cook for 1 minute. Pour into prepared strawberry mixture and stir until well incorporated (2-3 minutes) Then add in the vanilla.
  5. Pour into prepared 8 ounce jars leaving some space at the top so the jam can expand during freezing .
  6. Cover with lids and keep at room temperature until cool. Store in a refrigerator or freezer.

Notes

  • This freezer jam keeps fresh in the refrigerator for about two weeks.
  • For longer storage, freeze jars and use within one year for best quality.
  • Adjust the sweetener amount based on desired sweetness, but do not reduce pectin for best set.
  • Leave space at the jar tops to allow for expansion during freezing.
