Delicious raspberry jam in minutes! Simply crush, stir and serve or freeze. Tastes just like hand-picked raspberries from the garden.


INGREDIENTS:


1- 1/2 cups (375 ml) granulated sugar or SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener


1 pouch (45 g) BERNARDIN® Freezer Jam Pectin


4 cups (1000 ml) crushed raspberries, about 4 pints (2 L)


 


DIRECTIONS:


• Wash and rinse 5 BERNARDIN® Freezer Jars and lids or 250 ml mason jars and closures.


• Wash, thoroughly drain and crush raspberries, one layer at a time; measure 4 cups (1000 ml). If a smoother textured, “less seedy” product is desired, before measuring, press half of raspberries through a sieve to remove seeds.


• In a large mixing bowl, combine Freezer Jam Pectin and sugar or SPLENDA® until well blended. Stir fruit mixture into pectin-sugar mixture; stir 3 minutes.


• Ladle jam into jars, leaving 1/2 inch (1 cm) headspace. Wipe jar rims removing any residue. Apply lids tightly. Let stand until thickened, about 30 minutes. Refrigerate up to 3 weeks, freeze up to 1 year, or serve right away.


NOTES & TIPS


SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener may be substituted for the granulated sugar. Use the same quantity of SPLENDA® as directed for granulated sugar. Other artificial sweeteners are not suitable substitutes
