Ingredients:
- 8 ounces fresh strawberries
- ¼ cup erythritol, powdered
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- ¼ cup water
Instructions:
1. Measure out 8 oz. of fresh strawberries and slice into small cubes. The bigger the cubes, the bigger the remaining pieces in the jam will be. So, if you don’t want a lumpy jam, try to make these relatively small.
2. Add 1/4 cup Erythritol to a spice grinder.
3. Grind erythritol until powdered. Be careful when removing lid so that it does not go all over the place.
4. Place cubed strawberries into a pan over medium heat.
5. Add powdered erythritol onto strawberries and mix well.
6. Leave this for a while. As the strawberries heat up, they will naturally release water and juice.
7. Mash strawberries using a potato masher (or fork) and let come to a boil.
8. Let the mixture boil for about 5-8 minutes, until you see that it has thickened up slightly.
9. Measure out 2 tbsp. Chia Seeds.
10. Add chia seeds and water to the jam and stir well for about 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat to let cool.
11. After about 15 minutes, your jam will be ready! You can eat some now or store it in a mason jar.
12. Serve it up as a delicious condiment!
