Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 60 grams Erythritol or low carb sweetener
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Start by washing the mixed berries thoroughly and removing any stems or leaves from the strawberries.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the berries, erythritol, and fresh lemon juice. Stir well to evenly coat the berries with the sweetener and juice.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Let the berries cook for about 10-15 minutes until the berries have released their juices and softened. Use a spoon or a potato masher to carefully mash the berries to your desired consistency.
Step 5
Stir in the lemon zest, chia seeds, and vanilla extract. Continue cooking the mixture for an additional 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken as the chia seeds absorb the juices.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the confituur cool slightly. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.
Step 7
Once cooled, transfer the confituur into sterilized jars. Seal tightly and allow it to cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating.
Step 8
Store the low carb mixed berry confituur in the refrigerator for up to two weeks and enjoy as desired.
