ERDBEER CHIA MARMELADE

this super easy raw vegan strawberry chia jam!

And yes, you heard right: it’s raw!

Accordingly it’s done super quick, it’s really so easy and it’s packed with vitamins and fiber!

What you’ll need:

• a bowl of strawberries (~ 250g)
• 3 tbsp chia seeds
• 3 tbsp of water
• optional: sweetener of choice (agave-, maple syrup…)

And that’s how it’s done:

Wash the strawberries and cut off the greens. Put them into a big bowl and mash them with a fork. You can also blend them with a mixer, but I like the consistency they get when you mash them by hand.
When all the strawberries are mashed, you can add the chia seeds. I took 3 tbsp for around 250g of strawberries. The more seeds you take the more it will jelly!
Blend them with the strawberries and add some water if needed (if your strawberries have a lot of liquid itself you don’t really need the extra water).
After that you can either sweeten it with a sweetener of choice or just put them into a jar without. I didn’t take a sweetener and it tasted delicious!

Put it into the fridge for some hours or overnight.

And eat it with pleasure the next morning! :D

It’s really so simple and so delicious! I honestly prefer the raw jams to the cooked ones just because they taste so rich, fruity and pure!
I always love it with whole wheat bread or as in this case freshly baked buns.

Make sure to eat it the next days because it’ll not last as long.
You can also put it into your yogurt or muesli – just be creative! ;)
