I've started playing around with Chia seeds and found a few jam recipes so thought I would try one with raspberries as they hide the seed appearance of Chia well. I was happy with how this turned out and it so simple compared to "normal" jam making and a lot less sugar...a lot less. Diabetics rejoice in the jam! The Chia seeds form the perfect gel to make a jelly like jam. Jam in under 10 minutes! I used a dash of Stevia to sweeten this but feel free to add your own sugar substitute. I would recommend you taste the jam before adding the sugar though, just to ascertain if you want any sweetner as the fruit is fairly sweet enough on it's own.
Keep this in the refrigerator for a week. Feel free to use other fruit....go crazy with the experimentation in the kitchen!
