Today we are canning up some carrot cake jam from the Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving – https://amzn.to/3SBbetg Intro …
I had a bunch of pears as well & stumbled across this video: https://youtu.be/iQ9RHVug9KI
SO GOOD!!! I added 2 tbsp of amaretto to each of my jars too 🥰
I use Pomona's pectin for all my jellies and jeans because it isn't dependent on the sugar to set…. You can essentially use as much sugar as you want, or honey, or stevia… Whatever. It's wonderful!
I made this too when I watched Cassandra at Becoming a Farm Girl make it in one of her vlogs. We love it!!!
Sounds great. Thank you for sharing.
Oh my goodness, that sounds amazing and perfect Christmas gifts!!! I’m for the lower sugar option for sure!!
Pomona Pectin is great for low sugar jams ive heard. Many seasoned canner use it. It's on my list to buy.
This sounds amazing. Thank you 😊
Man that’s a lot of sugar 😁😳😬
This looks really good Anna, however, the sugar omg. I would try half and see what happens or try sucanat. It's not as sweet as white sugar, it's not as processed either.
Makes the best PB and Js ever!
I have been avoiding making this recipe, Not because it doesn't look good but because it looks too good! Carrot cake is my favorite type of cake and I'm sure I will consume An obscene amount of this jelly.
Someone help me out with the name of bulk pectin I've seen others use that takes less sugar, please. I don't use it, but others recommend it.
I waterbath in my pressure canner.
That sounds delicious!! but have like you, reduced sugar in my diet.
I love carrot cake, this sounds wonderful. Use with you and the sugar issue. Mack has the sweet tooth as well. ❤
I agree it's so good. Made it last year.
I have made this jam before but my family did not like it so I won't be canning it again. Glad you like yours. Thanks for sharing.
Oooh!!! I have some lovelies in my house that would love this!! Thanks for sharing!! ❤
Suregel does make a low sugar pectin and everytime I have used it I have no problems with setting and everything has always tasted amazing.
Loved this video and as if I need more jam on my shelf – I now need to make this. It just looks amazing. No, it isn't keto (I don't do keto) but I kinda feel like having this on a slice of bread is better than having the actual carrot cake (carb wise).
Thank you for sharing! Can't wait to try!
Yeah I would love to be able to do this with less sugar. Sounds so good.
Hey Hey Anna! I am so excited to see this recipe! It sounds so yummy!!
I sent you something in fb messenger. It's to help with the gnats/fruit flies.
Thank you. That looks delicious. I’d like find out if I could use less sugar too
Yum! This looks good! I'll have to make some. Thanks Anna.
You are so cute, Anna! This is my favorite jam. I have made it a couple of times. But would love to be able to make a lower sugar recipe, if possible. I do use Pamona’s pectin for most of my jams because it allows you to use sugar substitutes, monk fruit…. But I was told to use regular sugar on this jam. IDK why???
Awesome
I love pineapple, this looks great but omg so much sugar! 🤣🤣😂😂👍
I've made this jam from the Ball cookbook, like you. It is very tasty. Try using it in a "pumpkin bread" recipe and I think you'll like it.
Morning anna. I got that recipe of the ball canning book. I wanted more carrot taste personally. And WAY LESS sugar. So I am going to keep looking for a similar recipe. Thanks for all the neat videos. Really liked and saved the sourdough series . Be well

In Canada we can buy Bernardin low or no sugar pectin. I have used Monk Fruit sweetener with it for many different jams and jellies with excellent results. They also give directions for low sugar jams that use very little sugar. I can only find it at Canadian Tire here. I do believe Ball makes a low sugar pectin the same.
Pomona’s pectin! Less sugar. Thank you, sounds/ looks like a great jam.🥰
I just made this with no sugar needed pectin adding Splenda as my sweetener to taste . It turned out great not as Shiney but that is OK to me. There are so few sugar free jams available I love making different types for my husband and daughter in law to have.
I made some of this too with my extra carrots. So yummy!
I have been debating if I should make this jam for a while. You might of just convinced me to make it 😉. Less sugar would be good for sure. Again, thanks for sharing.
Hi Anna 👋 That sounds yummy.
Would love to hear what others say about less sugar for sure! 😊
This is a great jam. A gal at one of the local churches makes this for their fall fundraiser and it is snatched up faster than she can make it
Yummy
My girls don't like chunks so I would definitely have to blend all the fruit first 😂
This sounds delicious! Do you use monk fruit mixes for a sweetener on keto… Carnivore?… Can you even use a sweetener on carnivore?
I love my carrot cake jam is great
