Here is a fun recipe I love to make with my girls and in my classes. Kid's love being able to make their own jam. This recipe is great for an easy {no-cook} version of jam. A healthy and tasty way to use fresh berries.
Very Berry Chia Jam
Ingredients:
3 cups Fresh Berries
1 tbsp Chia Seeds
1/4 cup pure Maple Syrup or Honey
1 tsp Nutmeg
Wash (and hull if using strawberries) the fruit. Blend all of your ingredients together in a food processor or blender on variable speed being sure not to over blend. For a fun kid way to make the jam instead add all of the ingredients to a ziplock bag. Seal and let kids knead it with their hands or roll it with a rolling pin for about five minutes until well smashed and combined. Store in an airtight jar or container for up to a week in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer. Perfect on pancakes!
