Ingredients
1/2
cup
dried elderberries
(or 1 1/2 cups fresh)
3/4
cup
filtered water
1 1/2
cups
juice
3
tsp
sugar-free pectin
1/2
cup
date paste
(see recipe below or use 1/2 cup this
low-carb sweetener
for lower-carb, or see notes for other alternatives)
Instructions
Soak elderberries in water overnight.
Bring berries, water, and juice to a boil.
Remove one cup of jam mixture from heat, add pectin and date paste or syrup, and blend until smooth.
Return blended ingredients to pot and bring to a boil once again. Reduce heat slightly and keep stirring for 10 minutes.
Remove pot from heat and pour jam into canning jars. The sugar-free pectin will harden the jam as it cools.
