Make healthy homemade Strawberry Chia Seed Jam with 4 simple ingredients: strawberries, chia seeds, lemon juice and maple syrup!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups strawberries, fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • lemon zest, optional

Instructions

  1. Add strawberries, lemon juice and maple syrup to a small pot and heat over low-medium heat. Stir strawberries often and use a fork or a potato masher to smash the strawberries once they've started to soften.
  2. When the strawberries begin to soften and release fruit juice, stir in the chia seeds.
  3. Turn off the heat and allow your strawberry chia seed jam to rest in the pot and thicken. Stir a few times while it cools to ensure chia seeds are not clumping together.
  4. Let jam cool completely before transferring to an airtight container or glass jar. Store chia seed jam in the fridge for up to a week for best flavor and freshness.
