It will be strawberry time in a few months here I North Carolina. I can the fresh picked strawberries into jam. My problem is my daughter is diabetic and the last time I made sugar free jam it was very loose and not jam like. Can anyone help? Maybe a better recipe or trick to making sugar free jam? I would appreciate any help. Thanks so much

So it probably came out like my peach butter did. I really let that get broken up so there are not many pieces of peach just pulp. I am going to be trying this as soon as the strawberries are ripe for picking here. Usually the last week of May. Thanks so much for the information.

Denise I just mashed them and cooked them down. I didnt add pectin either. It was one of my best jams. cant wait to make more.

Connie,
Did you just mash the strawberries and add the pectin? Did you have to boil them. I need to find a sugarfree recipe. I did peach butter that way but I just cooked the peaches down in the crockpot no pectin.
