Could you possibly use pectin in place of cornstarch to thicken? Do you think recipe could be doubled without a problem? I also think ‘m going to try this with blueberries and raspberries. Most store bought jam uses high fructose syrup!
If you used 1 1/2 tablespoons of cornflour you should used 1 1/2 tablespoons of water not 1/2 teaspoon of water
