Mash & thicken: Mash the fruit with a fork or potato masher to your desired consistency. If it’s looking too runny, stir in the chia seeds. They’ll help absorb the extra liquid and thicken the jam.
Sweeten & finish: Add your sweetener (honey or maple syrup) and lemon juice. Stir to combine. Cook for another minute until everything thickens up nicely.
Cool & store: Let it cool down before transferring to a jar. It should thicken more as it cools. Store in the fridge for up to a week.
Enjoy your naturally sweet, low-sugar, thick jam! You can spread it on toast, yogurt, or just eat it by the spoonful!
