Merry Berry Kale Jam – Homemade and Sugar-free for the Whole Family

Berry Kale Jam

By Chef Katie Mae

Makes 2–4 servings | Ready in 10 minutes | Stores 1 week in fridge

 

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 cups berries, halved if appropriate (strawberries, blueberries, etc.)
  • 1–2 persimmon (fuyu or amigaki) OR oranges, diced
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
  • ½ bunch of kale, finely chopped

 

DIRECTIONS

  1. Place the berries in a saucepan on the stovetop and cover. Cook them over medium-high heat until you can see the fruit start to break down and release juice, about 3 minutes. Stir frequently during this time to prevent the fruit from browning.
  2. Stir in the diced persimmon/orange, nutmeg and then the kale. Turn the heat to medium. Cover and simmer for a few minutes or until the kale and fruit is cooked to your liking.

 

CHEF’S NOTES

Feel free to experiment with other fruit. I love to add fresh, seasonal fruit.

For extra sweetness, either add ¼ cup of a fruit juice OR add a few diced dates with step 1.

If you like very tender kale, add it at the beginning with the fruit and cook to your desired consistency.
