Vegan Life tip
Chia Jam
• 125g (4.4 oz) raspberries
• 130g (4.5 oz) chia seeds
• ½ large lemon, juiced
• 4 tbsp maple syrup
• 120ml (4 fl oz) water
1 Purée the raspberries in a blender, just
enough to form a sauce.
2 Combine with the rest of the ingredients
in a bowl or jug. Leave overnight for the
chia to soak up all the liquid and form jam.
3 Refrigerate and enjoy over a couple
of weeks.
