la confiture de framboise(s)

It seems to me that "la confiture de framboise" would be spelled "la confiture de framboises," as jam would be made w/ de nombreuses framboises, not juste l'une framboise. I googled "la confiture de framboise" and both spellings were prevalent, which doesn't help on locking down on accuracy. So which is it?
