Instructions:

1. Place chopped strawberries, lemon juice and xylitol (start with the smaller quantity and add more later if needed) in a small saucepan over medium heat and stir to combine.
2. Continue cooking for approximately 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and mashing the strawberries with a potato masher or fork once they have started to soften.
3. Taste for sweetness, and add more xylitol if needed.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the gelatin and water then pour immediately into the strawberry mixture and stir to combine.
5. Remove from heat and pour into a heat-safe container such as a mason jar (the half-pint size, wide-mouth jars work well for this).
6. Allow to cool, then cover with lid and refrigerate until jelly-like, approximately 1 hour.
