Ingredients

  • 4 cups of mashed blackberries
  • 1 1/2-2 cups of sugar we used the organic evaporated cane juice from Costco
  • 3 T chia seed

Instructions

  1. Optional, ground chia seeds in a blender, or coffee grinder (this reduces the seediness of the jam.
  2. Place all three ingredients in a crock-pot, and cover and cook on high for 1 hour.
  3. Remove lid and cook another 2-4 hours to thicken jam, stirring occasionally.
  4. Place in jars, cool, and refrigerate for up to two weeks. Jam will thicken more in the fridge. You can probably can this, but I am not comfortable with my canning skills YET.
