10-Minute Chia Seed Jam

• timp total: 10 minutes

Ingrediente

2 cups fresh or frozen fruit (see suggestions below)

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1 tablespoon freshly-squeezed lemon juice

1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (only if needed)

Instrucțiuni

Heat fruit in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is heated through and begins to break down and bubble. Use a spoon or potato masher to mash the fruit to your desired consistency.

Stir in the chia seeds and lemon juice until combined. Then taste, and stir in 1 or 2 tablespoons sweetener if needed.

Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. (The jam will thicken considerably as it cools.)

Give the jam one final good stir. Then serve immediately, or transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
