YUMMMMM I used to make my own jams and jellies and even strawberry ice cream topping, when my kids were young and we'd go berry picking every June.
You might want to try just using less sugar, a sweetener (like splenda) or even honey and keep experimenting til it's how you want it. But then that could be time consuming and expensive.
Here's an easy recipe that might work in your bread maker...but since I don't have one I'm not sure.
4 cups sliced strawberries
1/3 cup Sugar
2 tbsp Lemon juice
1 Envelope unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup Water
In a medium saucepan, combine strawberries, sugar and lemon juice. Heat 5 minutes, crushing the berries slightly. Bring to a boil; boll rapidly, stirring constantly, 3 minutes.
In a small bowl, sprinkle unflavored gelatin over
water. Let stand 1 minute. Add to strawberry mixture and heat, stirring until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 3 minutes.
Let jam stand 5 minutes, skimming off foam with a spoon. Ladle into jars. Cover and
slightly before storing in the refrigerator for several weeks or in the freezer for longer storage.
