Chia Seed Jam is an awesome addition to your back to school schedule! Enjoy on toast, in sandwiches, or even over ice cream!
Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
  • 5 – 7 Fresh Basil Leaves, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups Fresh Raspberries
  • Juice from ½ Lemon + a little Lemon Zest
  • 2 Tbsp. Chia Seeds
  • 1 tbsp. Maple Syrup or Honey, optional for sweetness
Instructions
  1. Heat fruit in a small saucepan, making sure to stir it around every minute or so. Once heated, use a fork to break down the fruit to your desired consistency. Remove from heat.
  2. Add lemon juice, zest, basil and chia seeds to the heated fruit. Stir all ingredients together until well combined. Taste and add maple syrup or honey if you prefer a sweeter jam.
  3. Allow jam to cool for 5 – 10 minutes; it will thicken as it cools. Serve immediately or store in a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
