Easy Raspberry Jam (3 Ingredients Only)
Description
Easy Raspberry Jam (3 Ingredients Only) uses frozen raspberries combined with sugar and chia seeds simmered for about 30 minutes. The cooking process softens the fruit and dissolves the sugar, while frequent stirring prevents sticking. After simmering, the jam thickens as it cools thanks to the gelling effect of chia seeds, which replace traditional pectin.
The resulting jam has a fresh, fruity flavor with a natural sweetness and a slightly seedy texture. It can be stored refrigerated in glass jars and used on toast, yogurt, or as a topping for desserts.
A suggested note is that sugar can be substituted with honey or maple syrup for alternative sweetness options, adjusting to taste preferences.
Ingredients
- 24 oz raspberries frozen
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup chia seeds
Instructions
- In a heavy saucepan combine raspberries with sugar and chia seeds. Simmer jam for 30 minutes on medium heat, stir the ingredients every 5 minutes.
- Place cooked jam in a glass jar, cover and refrigirate.
Notes
- Sugar can be substituted with honey or maple syrup to alter sweetness and flavor.
- Stir the jam regularly during simmering to prevent burning at the bottom of the pan.
