Raspberry Chia Jam Recipe | The Ultimate Chef

YIELD: 1½ CUPS

Chia seed takes the wheel and adds an incredible thickness to this jam—no need for pectin! Use just as you would your favorite jam, and feel good about all the extra nutrients (like calcium and omega-3s) you’re enjoying while doing so. If raspberry’s not your favorite, practically any berry will work well using this method. Try it with blueberries, blackberries, or a mix!

Directions

Place the raspberries and agave into a small saucepan and cook over medium-low heat until liquified.

Stir in chia seed and continue to cook one more minute, until thickened.

Transfer to a resealable container and let cool at room temperature before transferring to the refrigerator.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
