How to Make "SUGAR FREE" Marmalade!

John is using some of our grapefruit to make cane sugar free marmalade - using xylitol as the sweeter.
Xylitol is a non-fermentable sugar-alcohol made from birch trees or corn cobs. Yes, it is a refined product, but unlike cane sugar (sucrose,) there is evidence that it reduces tooth decay and is safe for diabetics. It has about 2/3 of the calories of sucrose. Read more at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylitol.
In Australia it is available from health food shops, or online from www.naturallysweet.com.au/

What a great recipe - thank you! I have so many sweet mandarins so maybe I won't need a sweetner. How long does the marmalade keep? Sorry this is so late in making a comment but I only just found your recipe and I'm rarin' to go!

Best used within a year...but will keep longer. You should still use some sweetener with them to help it keep, but maybe not as much.

Can gelatine be substituted for Agar? Should it be kept refrigerated or can it be cupboard stored (Im in SA) so glad I found your recipe. Thank you

@homesteading 4 жыл бұрын

Pectin would be a better alternative to agar. If properly sealed in the jar (bottled hot with vacuum on cooling) it will keep fine in the cupboard. I keep it for up to a year!

Can you use stevia instead? How long does it keep?

@NaturallyAspirated250 3 жыл бұрын

Tried this receipt with Stevia and thickened with pectin instead of agar, came out superb! My teeth are sensitive to sugar and a breakfast without marmalade on toast is not breakfast!

Great video. Easy to follow. Have you tried Monk Fruit instead of Xylitol?

No, have not done that.

Interesting... If you had used the pips would that have worked instead of the Agar?

What the Agar you have used? What is that?

@homesteading 6 жыл бұрын

Agar is a jelling powder made from seaweed or algae (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agar .) Purchase from health food shops or eBay.

Thanks. At first I've been thinking that it's some kind of other "agar" not that agar.

Don't you find xylitol gives you a lot of wind? I find it much worse than onion and baked beans!

@homesteading 5 жыл бұрын

That certainly can be a problem if too much is eaten! I have recently found that I can reduce (1/2) the amount of Xylitol used by blending in pure stevia.

It has to be so bitter! Isn't it? Grapefruit juice it's bitter by itself and the white part of citrus zest is the most bitter. :O

Xylitol is extremely toxic to dogs so I don’t use it. I’ll try this with Allulose or Monkfruit.

Homesteading DownUnder I don’t either but I’m more concerned about spills and accidental ingestion so that’s why I choose to avoid it. I am curious though, I’ve used erythritol in lemon curd and it tends to re- crystallize after being heated. Do you have that problem with xylitol?
