Directions
Reduced-Sugar Peach Champagne Jam, swiped off the bernardin website and modified since i couldn’t find another recipe like this anywhere all the others either used gelatin, were ment to be kept in the fridge instead of canned, or were about 90% sugar i haven’t actually tried this yet but i’m hoping it will taste a bit like a bellini i’m going to serve it over ice cream and in yogurt , I picked this recipe as one of My Three Chefs for the June 2012 game This jam is really delicious Since my husband and I prefer jam that is not very sweet this recipe with optional sweetener worked out great I decided to add about a third of the Splenda that was called for My husband couldn’t wait to try it so we had some right out of the pot on some biscuits MMM MMM! That was great!
