Trying to find a healthy jam at the grocery that doesn’t have any added sugar can seem nearly impossible.

So I set out to recreate a healthy jam that would rival those school day lunches - one with minimal ingredients, zero added sugar, and one that would last for a while in the fridge.

That's when my Beet-Lime Chia Seed Jam came to life.

With just five ingredients, this jam packs a serious flavor punch. It can be spread on toast, paired with almond butter, or added to yogurt bowls, smoothies, and desserts.

INGREDIENTS:

1 c fresh berries (your choice)
1 tbsp raw honey
1 tsp coconut oil
4 tbsp chia seed
¼ c Beet-Lime Kombucha

DIRECTIONS

Place berries in small saucepan over med-low heat.
Gently smash raspberries with spoon as they begin to warm.
Add in honey and coconut oil, stirring continuously until melted and well combined.
Remove pan from heat and stir in Beet-Lime Kombucha.
Let cool for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, place chia seeds in small jar.
Once berry sauce is cool, pour over chia seeds and mix thoroughly.
Let cool another 5 minutes before covering with lid and placing in fridge.
May need to add more Kombucha to thin mixture or more chia seeds to thicken.
Keep in fridge for about 10 days.
