Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen berries of choice
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp water
  • syrup or sugar to taste optional

Instructions

  • Place berries in a small saucepan with water and stir constantly over medium heat until they have broken down. Taste test and add sugar or syrup if desired (I like to leave it tangy, without added sugar).
  • Stir through chia seeds and turn off the heat. Leave the mix to cool and the chia seeds will begin to soak up the liquid and thicken the mixture.
  • Transfer to a glass jar, seal and refrigerate for a few hours. Chia jam should keep in the fridge for about 10 days.
