This Raspberry Chia Jam is a quick and healthy alternative to traditional jams, requiring no cooking and bursting with fresh raspberry flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Fresh or Frozen Raspberries
  • 23 tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 12 tablespoons Sweetener (Maple Syrup, Honey, or Agave)
  • ½ tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Raspberries: Place 2 cups of raspberries in a medium-sized bowl. If fresh, rinse and pat dry; if frozen, ensure they are fully thawed. Gently mash the raspberries with a fork or potato masher to your desired consistency.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Add 2-3 tablespoons of chia seeds, 1-2 tablespoons of your chosen sweetener, and ½ tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to the bowl with the mashed raspberries.
  3. Stir Thoroughly: Mix everything together well, ensuring the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the raspberry mixture.
  4. Let It Sit and Thicken: Cover the bowl and let it sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb liquid and thicken the mixture.
  5. Adjust and Enjoy!: After chilling, stir the jam and check the consistency. Adjust with a splash of water or more lemon juice if too thick, or add more chia seeds if too thin. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed before transferring to a clean jar.
