Constraining refined sugars is such an intense activity nowadays on the grounds that practically all handled nourishments contain refined sugar in some structure. On my voyage to smart dieting, jam is one of the nourishments I totally wiped out from my eating regimen very quickly on the grounds that it's so high in refined sugar. I grew up with my mother and grandmas making jams and jams each spring and summer for our family to appreciate all year around and in light of the fact that I was ruined with custom made jam, I had no issue surrendering the locally acquired stuff.
I'm so eager to be sharing this Easy 3-Ingredient Chia Seed Strawberry Jam with you today, since it's gotten one of our family's preferred bites. My significant other's preferred treat is a cut of natively constructed bread slathered in nut spread and jam, so surrendering jam as I did simply wasn't a possibility for him. What's more, since I didn't need our little ones filling their midsections with such refined sugar, I knew there must be a superior choice. I was incredulous that any jam formula I found could contend in the taste office, however this Easy 3-Ingredient Chia Seed Strawberry Jam REALLY does!!
This Easy 3-Ingredient Chia Seed Strawberry Jam is produced using just 3 fixings: Strawberries, Chia Seeds and Honey! That is it! No refined sugar, no gelatin, no gelatin. Simply sound, straightforward fixings pressed with sustenance. The chia seeds do all the hard expression of making a jam-like surface, and the nectar brings simply enough sweetness. I've been making this delectable formula for quite a long time and I was initially motivated by this formula and this formula.

- 1 pound fresh strawberries, washed, hulled, and sliced
- 3 tbsp honey add 1 more tablespoon if you like your jam very sweet
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
Instructions
- Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the strawberries. Add the honey and place on the stove over medium heat.
- As the strawberries begin to soften over the heat, stir them around in their juices and the honey.
- Once the berries have softened to the point that they're starting to fall apart, use a potato masher or fork to break them up even more.
- Let the mixture come to a slow boil, stirring almost continually. Once you see some big bubbles break the surface, add the chia seeds.
- The chia seeds will help the jam achieve a gelatinous texture while also adding fibre, protein and healthy Omega-3 fats.
- Continue stirring the mixture over low heat for about 15 minutes, and then remove the pan from the stove.
- If you enjoy jam with small chunks of fruit in it, then you're done! Simply pour the mixture into a mason jar and cover it tightly with a lid.
- If you'd prefer jam with a smoother texture, feel free to add the mixture to your blender and pulse it a few times before pouring it into a mason jar. Or, use an immersion blender and pulse only a few times.
- While the jam is still hot it may seem more fluid that you would expect. The chia seeds need a bit of time to do their work, so let the jam cool to room temperature in the jar and then put your jar of jam in the fridge for a few hours and it will achieve the perfect texture.
- Enjoy on toast, gluten-free crackers or scones, over yogurt or even ice cream.
