Strawberry
Freezer Jam
Approx.
36 oz. Strawberries
1 (1.75 oz.) Box Sure Jell Lower Sugar Fruit Pectin (In pink box)
1 1/2 Cups Sugar
1 1/2 Cups Splenda Granular
1 Cup Water
7 (8 oz.) Jelly Jars
Use a potato masher and crush the strawberries. The jam should have
some pieces of fruit in it, so don't puree. You should end up with 4
cups of crushed strawberries. Measure the sugar and Splenda into a
small saucepan. Stir in Sure Jell until thoroughly mixed. Stir in 1
cup water. Bring mixture to a boil on medium-high heat, stirring
constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute, then remove from heat. Stir hot
pectin mixture into the fruit mixture. Stir 1 minute or until
thoroughly mixed. Pour into jelly jars leaving at least 1/2 an inch
space at the top for expansion during freezing; cover loosely with
lids. Let stand at room temperature for 24 hours until set. Tighten
lids and refrigerate for up to 3 weeks. Otherwise, store in freezer
for up to 1 year. Thaw in refrigerator. Once you open the jars, stir
the jam to make sure the fruit is mixed up well. Sometimes the
pieces of fruit float to the top of the jar. You can have up to 1/4
cup for 1 point. This is good on ice cream, toast, oatmeal or
anything else you can think of.
