Strawberry Rhubarb Jam in 1 Minute

By Peggie

*No white sugar added

Ingredients

• 2 cups of strawberries, cleaned and sliced
• 3/4 cup of fresh rhubarb, chopped
• 4 Tablespoons of pure maple syrup ( you may like it sweeter pending on your taste)
• 4 Tablespoons of chia seeds ( you can find chia seeds in your local health food store)
• 3 Tablespoons of FRESH lemon juice or lime juice ( must be fresh)

Preparation

Step 1

Add all of the above ingredients in a food processor or blender and puree for 60 seconds. If you prefer a chunkier jam- do 30 seconds or a smoother jam do for 90 seconds.

The chia seeds are crunchy but when you add liquid to them, the create a soft gel that is created with the lemon juice, strawberry juice and pure maple syrup.

Add to a jar and store in fridge overnight.

Ta- Da!

The add in of the lemon juice helps to bring out the flavours AND helps to preserve the jam for up to 2 weeks in the fridge.
