Diabetic Plum Jam (Szilvalekvar)
Black plums are the best for this aromatic jam. In America the season is long through summer and fall. By using a small quantity of my favorite sweetener, Truvia you end up with 95 % fruit. 2 ingredients, no preservatives! Makes 2 ⅓ cups, 38 servings.
Equipment
- Wire Masher
Ingredients
- 2.2 lb Black plums fresh whole
- 1 oz Truvia Cane Sugar Blend
Instructions
- Wash plums.
- Remove kernels, and quarter the fruit. Place plum pieces into a wide pot.
- Mix in Truvia.
- Cook the fruit, stirring occasionally for 30 minutes. Keep an eye on the jam, so it does not burn.
- If the plums are still chunky after this time, mash them in the pot with a wire masher, and cook the plums 10 minutes longer, stirring frequently.
- Pour hot jam in clean jars, cover.
- Bundle jars in a blanket for a minimum of half day to cool slowly. It keeps the heat on, hence improves the preservation process.
Notes
If you have super ripe plums from a farmer, no need to add anything to it! The plums have enough fructose, and one just cooks them long and slowly..
Keep jars in a cool place. After opening one, store it in the fridge.
Delicious!
