Ingredients

• 1 medium cantaloupe melon
• 1 cup erythritol
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 pinch pinch of salt
• 1 cup water
• 1 teaspoon gelatin

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the cantaloupe melon. Cut the melon in half, remove the seeds, peel the skin, and cut the flesh into small cubes.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine melon cubes, erythritol, water, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to ensure the erythritol dissolves and does not stick to the bottom.

Step 4

Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and allow the mixture to cook for about 30 minutes. Continue to stir occasionally, mashing the melon cubes gently with the back of a spoon or a potato masher to help break them down.

Step 5

After 30 minutes, the melon should be softened and the mixture should begin to resemble a thick jam. Taste for sweetness and adjust, if necessary, to suit your preference.

Step 6

Sprinkle the gelatin over a small amount of cold water to bloom it. Wait about 5 minutes until it absorbs the water and looks slightly swollen.

Step 7

Stir the bloomed gelatin into the hot melon mixture until completely dissolved.

Step 8

Remove the confiture from the heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 9

Transfer the confiture into sterilized glass jars while still hot for storage or let it cool to room temperature before serving.

Step 10

Store the Keto Confiture de Melon in the fridge for up to two weeks.
