Superfood Week- Chia and Berry Jam

This yummy spread contains loads of antioxidants, protein, vitamin A and omega 3, and it’s raw, gluten, soy, nut and dairy free and vegan. Perfecto!

You’ll need:
1 cup of any berries, and frozen is fine – blackberries, blueberry’s, strawberry’s, sou cherries, mulberry’s…
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp warm water
1 tbsp maple or rice syrup or coconut nectar

Variations
– 1 tsp raw honey (not vegan of course)
– 1 tsp vanilla essence or seeds from a pod
– 1 tsp lemon or orange juice and grated zest

Method:
Blitz all the ingredients together keeping it a bit chunky so it doesn’t turn into jelly. (Ah, there’s an idea.) Pour into a gorgeous and clean glass jar and pop in the fridge for at least an hour before tucking in. TIme enough to make some ‘Chia Muffins’ to spread it on.
