Ingredients
- 4 cups (pitted and chopped) Ripe plums
- 1 cup Erythritol sweetener
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 packet (about 0.25 ounces) Unflavored gelatin
- 1 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Wash the plums thoroughly under running water, then pit and chop them into small pieces.
Step 2
In a large saucepan, combine the chopped plums, erythritol sweetener, lemon juice, and water.
Step 3
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
Step 4
Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally, using a spoon to break down the fruit further.
Step 5
While the plums are cooking, dissolve the gelatin in two tablespoons of cold water, letting it sit for about 5 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the dissolved gelatin until completely mixed.
Step 7
Add the vanilla extract and stir until well incorporated.
Step 8
Allow the jam to cool slightly, then transfer it to sterile jars or containers. Let them cool to room temperature before sealing.
Step 9
Refrigerate the jam for at least 3 hours or until set. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
