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.
