Easy Berry Chia Seed Jam

This easy berry chia seed jam is so quick and easy to make that you might never buy store-bought again. You can use any frozen berries of choice. I like using a mixed bag of raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries when I have those on hand. I also find the mixed variety is sweet enough without adding any maple or honey, but feel free to add either to taste for a sweeter jam or compote.

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups frozen mixed berries blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, and blueberries, you can use any frozen berries though
  • 1/3 cup filtered water
  • 1/2 TBSP lemon juice
  • 1 TBSP chia seeds
  • optional maple syrup or raw honey to taste

Method
 

  1. Add the frozen berries and water to a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer for 10 minutes. Use a masher to carefully mash down some berries to your desired consistency. I mash a little, but not too much.
  2. Carefully pour the mixture into a wide mouth 16 oz mason jar.
  3. Stir in the lemon juice, chia seeds and optional maple syrup or raw honey. If you are unsure about the sweetener, you can always add after it cools too.
  4. Let it completely cool before you cover and refrigerate. Use up within 5-7 days. I bet it won't last that long though. Enjoy!
