Ingredients

• 500 grams Fresh blackcurrants
• 150 grams Granulated erythritol
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 120 milliliters Water
• 1 teaspoon Powdered pectin
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Thoroughly wash the blackcurrants, removing any stems and leaves. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.

Step 2

In a large saucepan, combine the blackcurrants and water. Stir gently over medium heat until the blackcurrants start to break down and release their juices. This should take about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Add the lemon juice and granulated erythritol to the saucepan, stirring well to ensure the erythritol dissolves completely.

Step 4

Simmer the mixture for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blackcurrants are completely soft.

Step 5

Dissolve the powdered pectin in a small amount of water to prevent clumping, then add it to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Bring the mixture to a boil, allowing it to bubble for 1-2 minutes while stirring constantly to prevent burning.

Step 7

Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow it to cool slightly, then stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 8

Transfer the jam into sterilized jars while still hot, leaving a small space at the top before sealing tightly.

Step 9

Allow the jam to cool to room temperature before storing it in the refrigerator. The jam will thicken as it cools further.

Step 10

Enjoy your low-carb blackcurrant jam spread over your favorite low-carb bread or as a topping for yogurt and desserts.
