Mixed Berry Jam Recipe
This mixed berry jam is the perfect way to enjoy a bounty of fresh berries in summer.
You can use any mix of berries you like, and even supplement with frozen berries as a great way to enjoy batches of jam all year around.
Chia Seed Jam Fresh Ingredients
This recipe uses chia seeds as the thickening ingredients and if it’s your first time making chia jam, then you’ll discover that the nutritious ingredient creates a gloriously thick jam, with so very little effort.
As mentioned, you can use any combination of berries you can find at your local grocery store, just go for around 500g or 1.1 lbs in total.
You can use whatever you normally use for sweetness, to sweeten your jam. Use stevia, monk fruit sweetener or your sweetener of choice if you’d like the jam to be low sugar, low carb and keto friendly.
Depending on the sweetness of your fresh fruit and how sweet you’d like your triple berry jam recipe to be, you can use more or less sugar or stevia than is suggested in the recipe.
You’re welcome to also add in fresh lemon juice, lime juice or orange juice or zest for natural pectin and flavor, if that’s what you’re used to using in fruit jam recipes.
