Ingredients
- 1 lbs Pears
- 1 cup Erythritol
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Water
- 0.25 tsp Xanthan gum
Directions
Step 1
Wash, peel, and core the pears. Cut them into small pieces.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the pear pieces, erythritol, lemon juice, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and water.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Stir occasionally.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the pears have softened significantly, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Remove from heat and use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the mixture to a blender, in batches if necessary, and blend until smooth.
Step 6
Return the blended mixture to the saucepan and sprinkle the xanthan gum evenly over the surface while whisking to prevent clumping.
Step 7
Simmer the mixture for another 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the jam thickens to your desired consistency.
Step 8
Remove the jam from the heat and let it cool down slightly before transferring it to sterilized jars.
Step 9
Seal the jars and store the jam in the refrigerator. Use within a month for best flavor and texture.
