Ingredients
  • 1½ cups fresh blackberries
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, finely diced
  • 1 tbsp xylitol
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • ⅛ tsp xanthan gum
  • 1 pinch of pure powdered stevia (optional)
Instructions
  1. Depending upon the size of the blackberries and the consistency of jam that you enjoy, leave the blackberries whole or cut them in half to make the inner core smaller. Place them in a heavy bottomed saucepan with the diced jalapeno, xylitol, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and continue to cook while stirring occasionally for 15–20 minutes or until thickened slightly.
  2. Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the surface and then blend in with a spoon, continue to cook for one minute then remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Adjust sweetness by slowly adding stevia, to your taste. Once cool, place in a glass jar or plastic container with a tightly fitting lid and keep refrigerated for up to two weeks. This may also be properly canned if desired. Makes 1¼ cups. Each serving is 2 tablespoons.
