Simple No-Sugar Jam for a Healthy Breakfast

 

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh or frozen berries (such as strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries)

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Optional: A drizzle of honey or pure maple syrup for added sweetness

Instructions:

Prepare the Fruit: Rinse and chop fresh berries, if using. Frozen berries can be used as-is.

Cook the Berries: Place the berries in a saucepan over medium heat. Use a fork or potato masher to help them break down and release their natural juices.

Add Lemon Juice: Stir in the fresh lemon juice to enhance the fruit’s natural flavors.

Thicken with Chia Seeds: Once the fruit has softened, add the chia seeds and stir well. Reduce the heat and simmer until the mixture reaches a jam-like consistency.

Cool and Serve: Remove from heat and let the jam cool. It will thicken further as it cools. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
