Keto Chilli Jam
Chilli jam is the perfect accompaniment to cheese and crackers. We also like to use it on keto bread with cooked meat.
You can adapt our chilli jam recipe to make it as sweet or hot and spicy as you like! We used scotch bonnet peppers which are very hot, but you can substitute these for milder chillis for a bit less heat and you can also change the amount of erithritol to vary the sweetness.
The recipe makes make approximately ten servings and uses a 250ml sterilized-sized jar.
