Ingredients
- 250 g raspberries (2 cups)
- 1 orange (juice and zest)
- 2 ½ tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar
Instructions
- Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Wash raspberries under cold water and drain well. Grate the zest of the orange and juice. Add raspberries, freshly squeezed orange juice and grated orange zest to the saucepan and stir.
- Let simmer for about 10 minutes, until the berries start to thicken into a sauce. Gently smash with a spoon or fork and stir occasionally to help combine.
- Remove from heat and stir in chia seeds as well as agave nectar. Combine well, pour in a sealable jar and let cool. The jam will thicken up as the chia seeds soak in some moisture.
- Spread on whole wheat bread or toast, over oatmeal or with yogurt and chia seed pudding. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
