This hack is perfect for a quick & easy jam for baking or when your all out of your usual favourite.
The taste is the same, but as it is not a classic preserve the shelf life will be ~ a week in the fridge.
Ingredients
500g fruit - I use frozen!
2-3 tablespoons chia seeds
OPTIONAL:
Splash maple syrup to taste
Squeeze lemon to help preserve
Method
Cook down your frozen fruit, take off the heat and stir in your chia seeds.
Add your maple syrup & lemon juice to taste.
Jar up and allow to set... easy as that!
Side note:
Making sure you get adequate omegas is super important! Please do some calculations to ensure your meeting your needs with this & other meals!
Personally, having this as my jam replacement in the morning gives me peace of mind that I'm getting an omega hit, but diverse sources are best :)
