Raspberry and blueberry jam

Raspberry and blueberry jam ( AIP, low FODMAP, Paleo)

Jam is just the easiest thing to make and this one tastes exactly like the one I had as a child. The best part is that you can utilise this in your AIP baking for a fruity burst of flavour. If you are really lucky and can tolerate nut butter, you can create your own PB and jelly.

This makes a good half jar portion. You can double the quantity if you want more, but I find this goes a long way if you are limiting the fructose on an AIP or low FODMAP diet.

Ingredients:

150g raspberries
150g blueberries
1/3 cup maple syrup
Tablespoon of lemon juice

Method:

Put all ingredients in a medium saucepan over a medium high heat until boiling. Stir continuously for roughly ten minutes to prevent sticking - it will be boiling rapidly as it liquifies. After ten minutes reduce the heat right down so it is bubbling gently. Let this bubble for around 7 minutes as the liquid reduces by almost half and you are left with a thick fruit jam. 

Let this cool and transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate. This will thicken further once chilled.
