To make the berry jam, combine the strawberries, blueberries, and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fruits have softened.
Mash the fruit mixture using a potato masher or a fork until it reaches your desired consistency. Stir in chia seeds and remove from heat. Allow the jam to cool, during which it will thicken.
In a large bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix almond milk, egg, vanilla extract, and olive oil until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of olive oil if necessary.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip with a spatula and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary.
Serve warm pancakes topped with homemade sugar-free berry jam.
