MAKES 5 SERVINGS – 2TBSP PER SERVING

 This is ridiculously easy and takes just a few minutes.

 Ingredients

135g (approx. 1 cup) fresh or defrosted frozen berries

1 tbsp chia seeds

Directions

Mash the fresh or frozen berries, so they are mushy but not purée (avoid blitzing them).

Add the chia seeds and mix well.

Spoon the jam into a sealable container.

Refrigerate for at least one hour. The seeds will plump up and absorb the liquid, creating a thick jam perfect for spreading on toast.

Unlike regular jam, this contains no sugar and must be stored in the fridge.

I recommend making it in small servings – enough to last no more than a week.
