- 200 g fresh raspberries, you can use frozen but quantity will vary
- 1 tbsp of chia seeds
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- squeeze of lemon, optional
Instructions
- Add the raspberries, lemon juice and maple syrup to a small saucepan and place over a gentle heat.
- Once the mixture starts to gently bubble, use a fork or potato masher to press down the raspberries until broken down and mostly smooth.
- Stir in the chia seeds and let it simmer for 1–2 minutes, until slightly sticky and jam-like.
- Remove the pan from the heat then leave to cool completely. As it cools, the chia seeds absorb the liquid and naturally thicken the mixture into a spoonable, spreadable jam.
