Strawberry chia jam recipe

Strawberry chia jam

Created by The Tesco Recipes team

No stirring over a hot stove with this strawberry jam recipe! Jam-meets-coulis, this sweet treat is healthier than some jam recipes, with just a little honey to sweeten the fruit instead of sugar. Allow to cool before serving on toast or with your favourite breakfast bowl, or you could even enjoy it for pudding with some Greek yogurt or crème fraîche.

Method

  1. Put the frozen strawberries in a pan; cook over a low-medium heat for 12-15 mins, stirring regularly and mashing the berries with a wooden spoon until broken down, adding a splash of water if they stick.
  2. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and use a fork or potato masher to mash the strawberries until fairly smooth but still with some texture. Stir in the honey and chia seeds, then set aside to cool and thicken.
  3. Once cooled, spoon onto sourdough toast or drizzle over natural yogurt and serve with fresh berries, if you like. Will keep, covered, in the fridge for up to 2 days.
