SERVINGS

1.5 cups of jam

PREP TIME

3 min

FREEZING TIME

Cooking Time

10 min

TIPS

You can use honey as sweetener instead of maple syrup. If you’re using frozen berries, you don’t have to defrost them. You will only need to add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

STORAGE

Store in a jar in the fridge for up to 1 week.

2 cups of fresh or frozen fruits (we like to use raspberries)
2 tablespoons of chia seeds
1 to 2 tablespoons of maple syrup
1 teaspoon of lemon juice

‍

Prepare the fruits by removing stems and pits, and chopping large fruits into small pieces. Berries can be left whole.
Pour the fruits and maple syrup in a pot over medium heat.
Stir for 5 to 7 minutes until the fruits begin to break down and bubble.
Mash them with a fork.
Sprinkle in the chia seeds, and add the lemon juice.
Stir well and cook for a few more minutes.
Remove from the heat. The jam will thicken as it cools.
Let it cool completely before eating. Enjoy!
