Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 lb raspberries fresh or frozen
  • 5 tbsp pectin
  • 2.5 cups granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Add the ingredients for the first stage to the Deluxe Cooking Blender in the order listed. Replace and lock the lid. Turn the wheel to select the JAM setting; press the wheel to start.
  • When prompted to“Add”, remove the vented lid cap and carefully add the sugar to the pitcher.Replace the cap and press the wheel to start.
  • Pour the jam into small containers and allow to cool, uncovered, before refrigerating. Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 month or freeze up to 6 months.

Notes

This setting has two stages. In the first stage, the blender will heat up the fruit and pectin to 212°F (100°C), which takes about 20–25 minutes. Then, the screen will display “Add”. This is when you will add your sugar and press the wheel to resume the cycle. During the second stage, the blender will heat to 220°F (105°C). At this temperature, the pectin used to make jam will activate and create the thick “jammy” consistency we all love.
If you think the amount of sugar in traditional jams and jellies seems high that’s because sugar does more than just make things sweet. Sugar is a natural preservative. It’s hard for bacteria to grow in something with a high-sugar content. It also aids in activating the pectin, which strengthens the gel or jam and helps to retain color and flavor.

Raspberry-Filled Donut Holes (Video)

These light and fluffy donut holes are filled with sweet homemade raspberry jam, then rolled in sugar to create an irresistible treat everyone will love!  This donut recipe comes from John over at Preppy Kitchen – and I absolutely LOVE his blog, recipes and videos.  You can learn more about John here, and his recipes are most definitely something you should check out. 

I wanted to do an extra recipe for you this week, since Valentine’s day is almost here, and I had just finished making homemade jam in my Deluxe Cooking Blender.  I loved the donut recipe, but I wanted to make donut holes, since our Donut Hole Pan is one of our two FREE gifts with any $100 purchase this month.

I did adapt the recipe, however, by not adding in cinnamon and nutmeg, because I wanted to let the flavor of the jam shine through.  I replaced the spices with Enrichables Pea Protein, to ensure the kids had some protein with their treats, and so I wouldn’t feel so guilty for eating so many!  To fill them with jam, I used my Easy Accent Decorator:

Donut Hole Pan

Make Donut Holes & More

There’s no need for a deep fryer when you can make two dozen baked donuts holes in the Donut Hole Pan! Make custom flavors or gluten- and allergen-free creations that are hard to find in stores. You’ll always know what’s in your homemade breakfast treats!

This pan will bring out your creativity with easy-to-make cake pops, bagel bites, or even meatballs. The carbon-steel material is durable and made to last. The nonstick coating ensures an easy release and effortless cleanup.

Easy Accent Decorator

Dessert Decorating Tool

Express yourself with frosting designs worthy of a bakery. The ergonomic handle and soft-touch grip make it comfortable to hold even when tackling a cake covered in frosting flowers. And the sturdy stainless-steel thumb lever holds up to all the cupcake swirls you want to make with it.

When it comes to frosting designs, choose from six decorating tips that’ll cover all the basics. The Round Tip gives you outlines, writing, and beads. The Star Tip can do zigzags, rosettes, shells, and, of course, stars. The Half-Moon Shell Tip makes beautiful shells, too. The Drop Flower Tip produces dainty flowers that can make even a beginner feel like a cake boss. The Bismarck Tip can help take your desserts to the next level with filled cupcakes and éclairs.

There’s no need to waste good icing when you’re finished. Any leftover filling in the decorator can be saved in the refrigerator up to 24 hours. Let warm to room temperature before reusing. Once the icing is gone, all the parts go in the dishwasher for easy cleanup.
