Question about PB & j

[thommu]

@antony32 What about adding raisins

 

[fscbmaster]

@antony32 Some french style jams use date or grape juice as the sweetener. Might be more pricey but in my opinion, it's totally worth it. Reading this post made me crave a pb&j sandwich...

@antony32 I cook frozen berries in a pot with a little water. Mash the berries once they're warm and bring to a boil. Then, turn the heat down to reduce. Once it's reduced, I'll throw in some chia seeds and put it in a jar and put it in the fridge. The chia seeds help make it a little thicker, jelly like consistency.

@antony32 berries mixed with stevia and chia seeds to make an easy no added sugar jam

@antony32 I blend dates with a bit of water to make a smooth paste. I think it’s pretty great on pb sammies. I also use it as a sugar substitute for recipe cooking. I like this thread, so many great ideas!

@antony32 Make your own! I haven’t bought jam in years. I always make my own! Some I don’t add sweetener and others I’ll add a tablespoon or 2 of this

@antony32 Honey is my jam.

@headed2heaven Same, I like honey, although it is debatebly vegan.

 

[headed2heaven]

@globalcitizenshipbyblood Whoops

 

[globalcitizenshipbyblood]

@headed2heaven No worries, it's not black or white really. Some consider it vegan and others do not.

 

[headed2heaven]

@globalcitizenshipbyblood So I shouldn’t delete my comment out of shameful ignorance?

 

[globalcitizenshipbyblood]

@headed2heaven Ha no, definetly not!

@globalcitizenshipbyblood But you could perhaps consider taking honey out of your diet
