I used some blackberries that had seen better days to whisk together this quick sugar-free chia jam.

Slathered on some keto crackers or bread, dolloped onto low carb yogurt or even mixed into a cocktail, this recipe works using any berry.

Ingredients

1 cup blackberries, fresh or frozen
1 Tbsp chia seeds
1 Tbsp monkfruit sweetener
1 tsp lemon zest

Directions

Put the fresh or frozen blackberries into a small saucepan over medium high heat. Allow them to cook down and help break them down with a wooden spoon.

Once the juice from the berries is bubbling, add the chia seeds, sweetener and lemon zest.

Stir the mixture and allow it to cook another 2 min, stirring occasionally. Remove the jam from heat and allow it to cool.

Store in an airtight container and refridgerate.

Enjoy on keto toast (see our Keto Nordic Stone Age Bread recipe), with yogurt, and even stirred into cocktails.
