tablespoon
sealable glass jar
- 250 g raspberries 2 cups
- ½ orange (juice and zest)
- 2 ½ tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup
Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Wash the raspberries under cold water and drain well. Grate the zest of half the orange and juice.
Add agave syrup, raspberries, freshly squeezed orange juice and grated orange zest to the saucepan and bring to a boil.
Let simmer on medium to low heat for about 10 minutes until the berries thicken. Gently smash with a spoon or fork. Stir occasionally to help combine.
Remove from heat and stir in the chia seeds. 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, serve over oatmeal, with yoghurt and more. Store in the fridge for up to one week.
