Ingredients
Instructions
-
Put the water, 1 cup of the berries, and all the other ingredients, except the gluccie, in a blender and blend well.
-
Transfer the puree to a medium saucepan and add the rest of the berries. Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn down the heat to a simmer. Depending on whether you want a thicker or thinner jelly, start whisking in the Gluccie; use only ¾ teaspoon for a syrup-like consistency. Use the full amount for a set jelly. This jelly will thicken more as it sits in the fridge.
-
Taste and adjust the sweetness to “own it.” Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
Note
From page 478 of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook:
"Put this on your pancakes, your donuts, in your yogurt—oh, the things you can do with SBJ!"
Trim Tip ~ "Community Tweak" from Barbara D.~ Barbara's Quick Tip is featured in the Trim Healthy Living eZine Volume 11:
“Quick Method Instructions" :
1.Put all ingredients into your *blender except for 1.5 cups of the berries.(Barbara used the entire 1.5 tsp of glucomannan.)
2.Turn the blender on high and let it go for about 5 minutes or until the mixture is thick and almost boiling
3. When the jelly has reached the consistency you want, pour out the mixture onto the remaining 1 cup of berries and stir.
** Please note that Barbara uses a Vitamix blender that has the ability to heat contents up. If you do not have a Vitamix blender you could still try this quick method by using water that is "just off the boil". Vitamix users can also consider using water "just off the boil", as it would decrease the blenders run time.
