Georgiana! Question about jam!

[rhiannon99]

Im currently on phase 2 rung 3 nuts/seeds and wondered when I could use sugar free jam? I make my own bread using almond flour and am looking forward to jam on toast!

If you could recommend a good s/f brand i'd be grateful!

Thanks!

OK I'll move it for you.

G may not be able to sign in today. But she will be back soon. I can tell you what I think though. I think that jam is made out of berries and ans such it can be tried out on rung 4.

Your bread sounds great. Do you have a recipe to share?

Re: Georgiana! Question about jam!

you can make your own!!! it sounds harder than it is. i think you need pectin or something cant remember right now. but you can get sugar free and use whatever fruit you want and splenda. my brain is in a fog right now sorry.

Oops. I was away for a few days and I missed this thread...

Sugar free jam. You mean the one you find in the section for diabetics? I think it has fructose or something, doesn't it? To be honest, I never checked the ingredients carefully as I don't really care about jam. Mom makes strawberry jam home though and she makes a few servings without added sugar. I remember it being quite good, but it's been years since I had any. Probably you could use any other berries. Grandma makes jam from raspberries (with sugar), but it has a lot of seeds in it and... well... she's the only one eating it that way (the rest of us are spoiled ).

I wonder on which rung you can have rose jam...
