Chia seed jams are the best. They only take 5 minutes to make, are free of refined sugars and pectin. Feel free to use any other fruit and make your own jam creations. It's delicious on toast and pancakes or swirl a spoonful through your yogurt bowl. Just yum!

- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions

Notes
- Slightly mixing will give it a jam-like consistency, while processing at a higher speed will give it a jelly-like consistency.
- If using frozen fruits, allow to thaw and remove moisture or add a bit more chia seeds to make sure everything gets jellified.
- Chia seed jam makes a lovely addition to cultured unsweetened (homemade coconut) yogurt, fruit bowls, oat bowls, quinoa breakfast, toast, etc.
