Notes
For variety, try other tender fruits, such as peaches, cherries, and berries.
this looks great – do you think I could substitute xylitol for a healthier sweetener option, without interfering with the gelling quality of the pectin?
I love apricots – and know they are so good for you – does anyone know how this might make up without the sugar – could honey be substituted?? that’s my question??
This is very good jam! Very easy.
This is very good jam
Has anyone ever substituted the apricots with strawberries?
