Berries, Chia Seeds Jam (Sugar Free)

OMG, this is so good!...this was my reaction with the result of my first homemade jam!

Why haven't I done it sooner? It's so, so easy to make and so much better than store bought jams!

Here's how I made it: raspberries, blueberry, strawberry (1 cup each), lemon juice, 2 Tbs sweetneer and  2 Tbs of raw chia seeds.

Step 1- Combine fruits and lemon juice in a pan. Bring it to boil then simmer in medium heat, stirring every once and a while to check the consistence (I wanted a jam with pieces of fruit so I didn't cook it  for too long).

Step 2- To absorve the liquid and to give a "jam" texture I mixed in 2 Tbs of chia seed (superfood).
At the end I had to add 2 Tbs of sweetneer to enhance the natural flavour. 

Step 3- After cooling down I transferred it to a pre sterilised jar!

Enjoy!
