A very simple recipe for a delicious homemade Raspberry Chia Jam. This jam is sweetened with maple syrup and is using the chia seeds as a thickening agent. This Raspberry Chia Jam is tangy, yet sweet enough and much healthier than store-bought jams.
I like using this kind of jam whenever I need jam as a layer in cakes or cookies, for example my vegan chocolate fudge cake, the tanginess goes well with the sweet cake and frosting.
