Raspberry Chia Jam

Raspberry Chia Jam

Ingredients

Yields about 1 cup of jam (or 16 tablespoons)

1 cup (fresh or frozen) raspberries

1 tablespoon maple syrup (or mild tasting honey), more if you’d prefer a sweeter jam

Juice of ½ lemon

2 tablespoons chia seeds

Directions

Combine raspberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice in a small pan over low heat.

Using the back of a wooden spoon mash berries until broken down. Cook for a couple of minutes.

Take a taste (be careful not to burn your tongue) and add additional maple syrup if you like.

Remove from the heat, add chia seeds, and mix well.

Pour into a jar and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.

The chia jam will last in the fridge for about 1 week.
