Strawberry Chia Jam
INGREDIENTS
Strawberry Chia Jam
10 oz frozen strawberries
3 TBS chia seeds
METHOD
In a pot over medium heat, bring the strawberries to a soft simmer, then lower the heat to medium low. Simmer them until they have broken down and begin to thicken into a sauce, about 15 minutes. You can speed this along by muddling the berries with a potato masher or wooden spoon once they’re soft enough.
Once the strawberries resemble a rustic sauce, add the chia seeds and turn off the heat. Stir them into the jam and allow them to sit for 5 minutes, this allows them to plump up.
Store in a mason jar in the fridge, should last 1 week. Use on toast, pancakes, on top of oats or chia porridge.
Option: You can use frozen blueberries and/or raspberries instead of strawberries. Cooking time will be shorter, around 10 minutes.
Enjoy!
