Apricot Chia Seed Jam

This took me a couple of attempts to get right but I think you will enjoy the final recipe. It so quick to make and is great on pancakes, toast or in baking. It can also make a nice gift for someone.

Ingredients 5 apricots

2 tbsp. white chia seeds

¼ cup of water

2 tbsp. maple syrup ½ tbsp. vanilla essence

Method

Chop apricots into small pieces

Add apricots and water to a small pan and heat for approx. 5mins until the apricots become broken down

Add chia seeds, vanilla and maple syrup and stir

Return to heat for a further 5mins until mixture becomes thicker

Leave mixture to cool and to allow the chia seeds to do their magic

The jam will keep for 2 weeks in the fridge.
