How to Make Diabetic Grape Jelly
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup of the grape juice. Let it sit for 5 minutes to soften.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the remaining 2 3/4 cups grape juice, orange rind, cinnamon, and cloves (if using).
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, or until the mixture has reduced to approximately 1 cup and has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove solids.
- Return the strained juice to the saucepan. Stir in the softened gelatin until completely dissolved.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
- Stir in the artificial sweetener to your desired level of sweetness. Taste and adjust as needed.
- Pour the jelly into a clean, sterilized jar or container. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
