Ingredients
- 3 cups frozen fruit
- 2 tbsp orange juice or water OJ cuts tartness or 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp chia seeds Add 1 tbsp extra if you want it to be more jammy
Instructions
- Place frozen fruit into a medium sized pot. Add in orange juice, maple syrup or water.
- Turn heat to medium and bring mixture to a gentle simmer. When this happens, use a potato masher to muddle the fruit to your desired consistency.
- Remove pot from heat and add in chia seeds. Mix really well so that the chia seeds are evenly dispersed.
- Wait about 20 - 25 minutes, you'll notice that the mixture will begin to thicken. If you’d like this to thicken even more for a jammy consistency, add in another 1-2 tbsp chia seeds.
- Store in a mason jar or tupperware for 3-4 days, refrigerated.
