Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Mixed fresh fruit (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, peaches)
- 0.75 cups Honey
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds (optional, for thickening)
Instructions
Wash and prepare the fruit by removing any stems, pits, or peels as needed. Cut the fruit into small pieces for even cooking.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the prepared fruit, honey, lemon juice, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
Use a potato masher or the back of a spoon to mash the softened fruit to your desired consistency. For a smoother jam, blend briefly with an immersion blender.
If you prefer a thicker jam, stir in the chia seeds and continue to simmer for an additional 5 minutes. The chia seeds will absorb liquid and naturally thicken the jam.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the jam to cool slightly. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if necessary.
Transfer the cooled jam into sterilized jars or containers and let it cool completely before sealing.
Store the jam in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze it for longer storage.
