Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 0.3333333333333333 cup Raw honey
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the mixed berries and place over medium heat.
Stir frequently and cook the berries until they begin to break down and release their juices, about 5-10 minutes.
Once the berries are softened, use a potato masher or the back of a spoon to mash them to your desired consistency.
Add the raw honey and lemon juice to the berry mixture and stir well to combine.
Allow the mixture to come to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
After the mixture has thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chia seeds.
Allow the jam to cool slightly, then transfer it to a sterile glass jar or container.
Let the jam cool completely at room temperature before covering and refrigerating.
The jam will continue to thicken as it cools due to the chia seeds. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
