Raspberry Chia Jam - Super Simple

As much as I love trying our new creative recipes, I love making basics such as pasta sauce, tahini or nut butters. One thing that I never thought of trying was making jam at home - the idea never allured me - it seemed like wasting fresh fruit to me. But boy was I wrong !! this Raspberry jam is so simple and tastes divine - way way better than the store bought variety.

Here is how to go about it:
Ingredients:

• 3 cups fresh raspberries (can use frozen too)
• 1 juice of orange
• 1/4th cup honey (can use agave or maple syrup)
• 2 tbs chia seeds
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• small pinch of cinnamon
• dash of salt (v.v little)

Instructions:

1. Add raspberries, orange juice and honey in a pan - and bring it all to a boil (try and keep the flame on medium low)
2. After a boil - add the chia seeds and turn the flame down to minimum and let it simmer for about 15 mins (Next time, I am planning to add chia seeds after I remove it from the stove)
3. Take it off the stove - add vanilla, cinnamon and sea salt.
4. Chill in the fridge
