Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries
- 0.25 cups water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
Instructions
Wash and hull the strawberries, then cut them into halves or quarters depending on their size.
Place the strawberries in a medium-sized saucepan and add the water. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the strawberries begin to release their juices.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for another 10 minutes, continuing to stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Use a potato masher or the back of a spoon to gently mash the softened strawberries to your desired consistency.
Stir in the lemon juice and chia seeds, mixing well to combine.
Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently until the jam thickens to your preference. Keep in mind that it will continue to thicken as it cools.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the jam cool completely.
Transfer the jam to a clean glass jar or airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Enjoy your Whole30 Homemade Strawberry Jam on top of your favorite Whole30-approved breakfast dishes or as a topping for snacks.
