Ingredients
 
 

  • 200 g strawberries
  • 200 g raspberries
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 3 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla paste
  • 2 Tbsp ground chia seeds

Instructions
 

  • To sterilise the jars you can plunge them in a large pan of boiling water for 10 mins. Alternatively you can also wash them in warm soapy water, rinse them and put them on a baking tray in the oven heated up at 100°C/225°F/gas ¼ for 10 mins. Make sure everything is very clean. You do not want to do this too far in advance as the jars should be warm when the jam is poured into them. Put some saucers in the freezer to test the jam when done.
  • Hull and quarter the strawberries.

  • Place the strawberries and raspberries in a heavy bottom pan or preserve pan. Add lemon juice and coconut sugar.
    200 g raspberries , juice of 1/2 lemon, 3 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • Heat the fruits under medium to high heat until the mixture reaches boiling point. Mash any chunks of fruits.
  • Add the vanilla and ground chia seeds. Carry on boiling jam for 10 - 15mins stirring occasionally so that the jam does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
    2 Tbsp ground chia seeds, 1/2 tsp vanilla paste
  • To test if the jam has set, put a teaspoon of jam on one of the cold saucer. Let it cool for a minute. The jam is done when it wrinkles when pushed with your finger.
  • Pour the jam in the sterilised jar. Seal. Store in the fridge.
