Directions
Directions
- Add 1 cup chopped strawberries to a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Cook for 5–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries soften and release their juices.
- Mash the strawberries with a fork or potato masher, leaving a few small pieces for texture.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon chia seeds and 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey, if desired.
- Cook for another 1–2 minutes, then remove from the heat.
- Let the jam sit for 10–15 minutes. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and naturally thicken the jam.
- Transfer to a covered jar and refrigerate. It will continue to thicken as it chills.
