Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups frozen mixed berries or fruit of choice
  • 2 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 to 3 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions
 

  • Add frozen berries or other frozen fruit to a pot, and cook over medium-high heat to a simmer (approximately 7 to 10 minutes), stirring it occasionally.
  • If using larger pieces of fruit or whole strawberries, use a potato masher to break down the fruit to your desired consistency. This will also help it cook faster. Skip this step if using frozen sliced strawberries and/or other types of berries.
  • Remove from heat and allow to sit for 10 minutes to cool slightly.
  • Stir in the maple syrup and chia seeds.
  • Transfer the jam to the storage container(s) of your choice. The jam will thicken as it cools.
  • Allow it to cool thoroughly before storing it in the freezer.
