Description

This super easy home made jam is packed with Omega-3s, fiber and spreads like a dream! Vegan, Kid-Friendly.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups raspberries, frozen
  • 2 tbsp water
  • ½1 tsp vanilla extract (depending on how vanilla-y you like it)
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Add raspberries, water and vanilla to a medium-sized pot over medium high heat. Bring mixture to a low boil, stirring frequently.
  2. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 5 minutes until berries soften. Lightly mash the berries with the back of a fork to achieve the consistency you like (if you like a chunkier jam, leave bigger pieces).
  3. Stir in the chia seeds and cook on low until the jam thickens, about 5 minutes, stirring to make sure it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
  4. Let the jam cool to room temperature and then pour into a glass jar or air tight container and store in the fridge. You can also store extras in the freezer and pull it out as you need it!

Notes

Optional: add a dash of honey or maple syrup for desired sweetness but it has lots of flavor as is!
