Ingredients
- 3 cups Mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries)
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the mixed berries under cold running water and drain well. If using strawberries, hull and halve them.
Step 2
Place the mixed berries in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
Step 3
Add 1 tablespoon of water to the saucepan and gently mash the berries using a potato masher or the back of a fork.
Step 4
Bring the berries to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking.
Step 5
Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and let the berries simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they have broken down and released their juices.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chia seeds and lemon juice.
Step 7
Transfer the mixture to a blender or use an immersion blender to pulse gently until desired consistency is reached. Alternatively, leave the jam chunky for a more rustic texture.
Step 8
Allow the jam to cool to room temperature. As it cools, it will thicken because of the chia seeds.
Step 9
Once cooled, transfer the jam to a sterilized jar or airtight container and refrigerate for up to two weeks.
