This easy Berry Chia Jam recipe only requires 3 ingredients and is ready in just 10 minutes! No refined sugar or pectin needed with the use of chia seeds. This jam is made with frozen mixed berries and you can adjust the sweetness to taste.
- 2 cups mixed berries, fresh or frozen
- 2 tablespoon chia seeds
- 3-4 tablespoon maple syrup
-
Add the berries to a sauce pan with a splash of water. Bring to a boil while stirring and reduce to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes, stir occasionally.
-
Once the berries are soft and juicy, take the pan off the heat and add the maple syrup, start with 3 tablespoons and add more to desired sweetness.

Stir in the chia seeds and if you have large berries like whole strawberries, mash them with a fork.
Let the chia jam cool in the pan for 15 minutes. The jam will thicken while it cools.
Store the chia jam in an airtight container in the fridge for a week.
