Apple jam on fructose, prepared for diabetics, allows you not to harm the body by a sharp increase in blood sugar. There are a lot of cooking recipes, especially since fructose jam has become popular with healthy people.
Features of making apple jam for a diabetic for the winter
It is recommended to take small garden apples for making jam. Consider the features of making jam from ranetki.
Garden apples contain a large amount of pectin, which eliminates the need for food thickeners. In order for the taste of the finished dish to be interesting, and the appearance to be transparent, you will need to try hard.
- Before cooking, apples must be sorted out, discarded fruits that are not edible.
- Wash under running water.
- Put in a saucepan, cover with cold water.
- Leave in this form for 2-3 hours.
After that, the apples are rinsed and simmered on the stove in their own juice. Only in this case you can get an amber-colored jam with an amazing taste. For a change, you can add vanilla, cinnamon to it.
Ingredients for the recipe
It is necessary to prepare:
- ranetki - 1.5 kg;
- fructose - 1 kg;
- water - 400-500 ml.
Any apples can be used for cooking. They should be elastic, without dents. When using other types of fruits, you will additionally need to add pectin or agar-agar. The norm for the given amount of products is 15 g.
Selection and preparation of products
In shops and markets, you can find several types of ranetki, among which green fruits predominate. Housewives try not to use them, since in most cases they remain tough when canning. But it's not a problem. Even unripe fruits are perfectly boiled into jam. The main thing is to follow the recipe.
You can also use sour apples for cooking. Cooked jam has a unique sourness, thereby emphasizing the taste of preservation.
How to prepare a container?
It is equally important to properly prepare the container. For this, glass containers must be washed with a soap and soda solution, placed on a baking sheet. Preheat the oven to a temperature of 100 degrees, put containers with the contents there. Warm up until completely dry. Pre-wash the lids, boil for 10 minutes.
How to make sugar-free jam?
Cooking a sweet, sugar-free dessert with fructose is easy and simple. Consider the actions:
- Wash the apples.If necessary, soak or cut the skin, remove the seed box. If ranetki are used, then they are added whole to the jam, and other fruits must be cut into small cubes.
- There is a certain condition for ranetki - they must initially be boiled in their own juice, and only then added to sweet syrup.
- Let's start making sweet syrup. To do this, mix water and fructose in a saucepan with a thick bottom. Cook with regular stirring until dissolved.
- Add apples and simmer for no more than 7 minutes with medium heat.
Why does it take so little time to cook the fruit in syrup? With long-term heating, fructose changes its properties, so it is not worth making the jam more than the specified time.
