Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries)
- 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Start by preparing the sugar-free berry jam. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the mixed berries, powdered erythritol, and water.
Stir frequently and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, mashing the berries with the back of a spoon as they soften.
Let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes until it starts to thicken.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chia seeds and vanilla extract.
Allow the jam to cool and thicken, about 5 minutes. The chia seeds will help it gel.
Divide the cottage cheese evenly into two bowls.
Top each serving with a generous spoonful of the sugar-free berry jam.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate the jam for up to a week for future use.
