Instructions
- Quarter the strawberries and add to a large pan. Cook over medium heat for 6-8 minutes, until soft and bubbling.
- Then remove from the heat and use a potato masher to gently mash the strawberries, but still leaving some chunky fruit pieces. Add the chia seeds and maple syrup, if using, and mix well.
- Set aside to let cool slightly, and then divide the jam into clean, air tight jars. Jam will completely set once refrigerated overnight or at least 4 hours. Refrigerate to use within 1 week or freeze for up to 4 months.

Notes
- Use CLEAN jars to store your strawberry jam.
- If the jam appears a little watery once cooked, not to worry. As it cools, the chia seeds will continue to absorb the liquid and leave behind a perfectly textured, thick jelly.
- I use black chia seeds, as those are easiest to find where I live. They do darken the jam colour slightly, but you may use white chia seeds for a brighter coloured jam, if available.
- For a slightly thinner consistency, reduce the chia seeds to ¼ cup.
- Makes approximately 3.5 cups of strawberry jam. Separate into small jars and keep one refrigerated and freeze the rest for future use.
- Your strawberry jam will keep refrigerated for 1 week, or freeze for up to 4 months.
