200 g frozen mixed berries use fresh if you prefer 2 tablespoon chia seeds 1 tablespoon honey optional squeeze of lemon juice optional
Place the fruit in a pan, and simmer very gently for 7 minutes. The fruit will soften and the juices will run.
Add the chia seed, honey and lemon juice. Stir well.
The jam will thicken as it cools. Once cool, store in the fridge in a lidded jar or other non-metallic container.
For a vegan low sugar jam, replace the honey with maple syrup. Or for a low carb keto jam you could also use stevia.
If using fresh fruits, cut larger fruits such as strawberries into smaller pieces.
Store the finished jam in the fridge for up to 10 days. It can also be frozen.
