Homemade Sugar Free Strawberry Jelly
This is an easy method for making your own strawberry jelly that has no added sugar except from what comes from the strawberries.
Ingredients
- Strawberries- 2 cups- if using frozen use no sugar added
- Instant Gelatin in Strawberry- 1 -3 ounce box
- Cold Water- 1 cup
- Sugar Alternative–¼ cup equivalent to sugar in volume. Also granular works best.
Instructions
- Start by placing your strawberries in a blender. Blend the strawberries until a near puree results. However, there should be some chunks of strawberries for best results.
- Using a large saucepan, set on medium heat, combine your gelatin, cold water and sugar alternative. Cook this, stirring continuously, until the ingredients are combined together. This should take you about 3-4 minutes.
- Next, we will add the strawberries to the saucepan. Stir in your strawberries ½ cup at a time. Be sure to stir the saucepan contents between strawberry additions.
- When all of the strawberries have been added to the pan, bring the pan to a boil.
- While your saucepan is heating up to that boiling poin, you can prepare empty jars by washing and drying them if you have not done so. I recommend using the method suggested by the manufacturer of the jars.
- Once the items on the stove begin to boil, turn the heat down and allow to simmer for 2 ½ to 3 minutes. Carefully pour the mix into the jars and allow to cool.
- Once your jelly has cooled in the jars you can cover them tightly. The you can store them in your refrigerator.
- This method of homemade jelly should last a couple of weeks in the refrigerator.
