Spreadable Fruit (Refined Sugar-Free Jam)

No reviews

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups strawberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup red raspberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 3 tbsp. maple syrup
  • 3 tsp. corn starch (or fruit pectin) – more as needed 

Instructions

  1. If using frozen fruit, allow to thaw and drain off and reserve the liquid. Blend the fruit using a food processor or blender.
  2. Add fruit and maple syrup to a non-stick saucepan and heat over medium-low heat. Add the cornstarch to the reserved fruit liquid if available and whisk together into a slurry until well-combined. Add the slurry to the fruit mixture.
  3. Allow the fruit mixture to simmer on medium low for 10-25 minutes. It will be done when it gets thick and syrupy and begins to stick to the sides of the saucepan. Usually at this point it has reduced down by about half or more (1 cup to 1 1/2 cups).
  4. Transfer to a jar and allow to cool.
  5. Refrigerate and use within 1 week.
