Notes
Add a splash of water if your mulberry chia seed jam is getting too thick while cooking. Stir the jam frequently so the fruit doesn't burn. The amount of honey you add to the jam will depend on the sweetness of the berries. Feel free to adjust the sweetness accordingly. Add some lemon juice right at the end if you'd like a touch of bright citrus flavor. A teaspoon of vanilla extract will be great if you want a richer flavor. This jam will stay well in an air-tight container or jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can follow the proper canning process to make it last longer.
