Instructions:
- Prepare the Fruit: If you’re using fresh berries, rinse and chop them as needed. Frozen berries can be used directly.
- Cook the Berries: Place the berries in a saucepan over medium heat. As the berries warm up, they will start to break down and release their natural juices. Use a fork or potato masher to help them along.
- Add Lemon Juice: Stir in the fresh lemon juice. The acidity will enhance the natural flavors of the fruit and add a lovely brightness to the jam.
- Thicken with Chia Seeds: Once the fruit has softened and created a saucy texture, add the chia seeds and stir well. Chia seeds are not only healthy but also act as a natural thickener. Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes until it reaches a jam-like consistency.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from heat and allow the jam to cool. It will continue to thicken as it cools. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
This no-sugar jam is a testament to the fact that you can enjoy the sweeter things in life without the added sugar. Whether spread on a slice of whole-grain toast, swirled into your morning oatmeal, or dolloped on top of Greek yogurt, this jam is sure to add a burst of joy and health to your breakfast table. Enjoy the freshness, flavor, and simplicity of homemade jam any day of the week!
