Cook Time: 5 minutesmins
Cool: 1 hourhr
Servings: 16(2 cups total)
Ingredients
2cupsfresh raspberries
1/2cupgranulated sugar
1/4cupchia seeds
1cupwater
Instructions
Place all ingredients into a medium-sized heavy metal pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat so the contents of the pot don’t splatter everywhere, but still bubbles in the pot.
Stir constantly so the mixture doesn't stick and the seeds don't burn, until the jam has reduced and thickened to the point where it drips off the spoon slowly, about 5-7 minutes, mashing up any berries that don't break down on their own.
Take off the heat and allow to cool for about 20 minutes.
Pour into clean glass jar/s, leaving a 1/2 inch clearance from the top.
Allow to continue cooling to room temperature.
Seal with lid and place in the fridge overnight to thicken up and chill completely.
Enjoy on toast, mixed with yogurt, on crepes, or by itself!
Notes
This jam will keep in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks. (The jam will thicken further and become more set once chilled.) It can also be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw in the refrigerator before using.
