I have another idea for you. Homemade Nutella. Hazelnut roasted and shreded till it is a cream or mousse. Than add honey and cocoa and a tablespoon water for consistency.
You could add lime or lemon juice to the jam as a preservative to this chia seed fruit jam recipe…..it will last up to a month in refrigerator, as I wont go through the size you make in one week
It’s the end of the blackberry season here 🇬🇧 and I’ve just made your jam. This is a great recipe. Thickening with oat flour works like a charm with no trace of it once it set. I’ve made fruit compote many times to substitute unhealthy Jam but this is so much more like jam. Thank you for another great recipe 😋
I love these jam recipes and appreciate the way you choose pure ingredients and create the most basic, simple, easy-going additive-free recipes without comprimising on flavour..
I don’t eat or buy jam because of all the unhealthy ingredients, in addition to sugar. Your healthy blackberry jam looks wonderful, like all of your other videos. I could listen to you all day, your accent is delightful and your videos are well thought out and concise, yet thorough. Thanks for doing what you do!
@@RylaiHoK Yes, of course you can use honey, just use a little less than you would with maple syrup, around 25% less as it's sweeter. Use a honey you like the taste of, I like manuka honey; although it does have a strong flavour/taste to it 👍
Fantastic version of homemade healthy jam. Never ate store bought jam as it taste like a bag of sugar. I normally make my jams without pectin only add quarter cup of honey. I do boil the jars before and after cooking and adding jam to the jar as I like to use the berries growing in my yard. For a fast and easy jam for everyday, I love the chia seed recipe.
I used to buy really good Jams online that were healthy and only sweetened with organic apple juice. However they have more than doubled in price so I stopped buying them. Have been craving healthy jam since so thanks for this recipe! I'll be sure to make it along with those awesome crepes! 😋
I don't like store-bought jam (too sweet) so I tend to make my own with frozen fruit (there's not always much of a selection of fresh fruits where I live.) I usually thicken mine with Xantham Gum, but I much prefer your idea of Chia Seeds Sasha! As ever, you come up with the best ideas! TFS and have a great week! 👍❤
I agree Hazel, so many store-bought products are so much sweet and jam is definitely one of those, it just happens with the taste buds, I can't taste Nutella anymore, thanks god for that... so homemade low-sugar alternatives are such a great solution. So glad you like this jam and appreciate your lovely feedback as always my friend. Have a lovely day!
I stopped buying Nutella made in Canada and Poland because it's just a jar of creamy brown-tinted sugar now. Faint chocolate flavor and maybe a bit of hazelnut that became cake frosting.
Ok this is what I was looking for! Thank you for the tips and ideas to try! I’m also going to try ground flax seed to help thicken the jam. Thank you Sir.🙏🏼
Wonderful, thanks so much. I have been making jams this year because of lots of fruit trees in my neighborhood and don't want the fruit to go to waste. A struggle has been to make jams that are lower in sugar, so I had substituted white cane sugar with coconut sugar, which was ok, but still a lot of sugar. Next time, I will use the tips you've provided here to make my jams. Thanks again for posting.
About two weeks ago I made a peanut butter jar's worth of preserves and it turned out very nicely. I used mixed berries currently in my freezer: blackberries, strawberries and blueberries, adding in unsweetened store bought applesauce, chia seeds and a spoonful of low sugar powdered pectin. I didn't make a mental note about additional sweetening but will be using a couple of tablespoons of monkfruit sweetener for the next batch....I have lots of berries to still use up ! This fruit mixture is so good with yogurt, over ice cream, in smoothies. Very versatile and not sickly sweet either.
It's a slight variation on Sasha's recipe. Really good tasting-- -but it will eventually develop mold like mine did. It got pushed to the back of the fridge and forgotten. Be sure to make one very small batch at a time. And remember to consume it, lol !
Bro, thank you! I’ve been looking for a simple fruit jam without all the unnecessary added sugar. I will finally be able to make PB&J’s again which I haven’t had in YEARS! And many other great uses.
@@HowToCookSmarter Oh right, I made the blueberry recipe x2 but I will definitely get around to trying the blackberry recipe and then experimenting with other berries after that. Once I finish the jam I have now of course :)
@@HowToCookSmarter plum jam is hard to find in the US. There is one that I get from Amazon because it's not sold in stores where I live. I am excited that you posted this recipe and can't wait to try it!
Perfect timing, I just made your microwave bread today! I toasted it and used a bit of butter, Delicious, then I saw this video! Now I can make both these Jams to put on that amazing microwave bread! Can't wait! Love Love Love your recipes! Thank you!!!
@@HowToCookSmarter You're Welcome, my pleasure! I share your recipes with family and friends because I want them to eat healthier versions of what they're already eating! Blessings
@@susanshade4665 That's just great, thanks so much! And you just put it the right way, the easiest way to start eating better is to make our favorite recipes a bit more healthier. Cheers!
Great recepie! I'm going to try this one. Jam prices are really high and not really worth it as i don't eat as much of it. This looks really easy to make so i think i'll start making mine homemade whenever i feel like having jam.
That's the point, we should make our jam whenever we feel like having one or have some leftover fruits on side, and with this recipe it's just possible... Thanks for your feedback!
i did it today ❤❤ thannnnnnnnks buddy i made blue and black berry mix with flour and a small apple sweetened by raw honey and another jar of strawberry with chia and honey too ... oh my god its the best thanks man
For my apples I added beets and cauliflower and used stevia ,it thicken up OK ,added chips seeds when eating batches from the fridge,also added it to my baked products as an apple sauce substitute
I'm intrigued. I've only made jam with fresh fruit and freshly ground chia seeds. It good to know how to approach a cooked jam. It would be great as a compote, too. 😋
@@HowToCookSmarter yes. I live in a small fishing village in southern Africa and during the pandemic every crafts person started to produce their own things to make some living. Some started selling artisinal bread, some ice cream, and me marmelades and pickled or marinated goods :D
@@eiramu That's great, a lot of people did the same thing here, started to grow their own food and produce homemade goods, and it's quite on demand here. What about your jams, is there any specific fruit you prefer to use, I guess you have some other sorts of fruit compared to what grows here in Europe?
@@HowToCookSmarter I've realized that the support nowadays for artisinal goods is higher which is great! I myself lived in Germany so I go back and see the change! In my case, I honestly started with jams because we had so many maracujas going bad in the garden and I was experimenting with sugar levels etc, even made some fruity hot sauces to use the chilies from the garden. Since we have so many tropical fruits here I stick to the local fruits such as mango, banana, oranges, lemons, and some of the more exotic region specific fruits. It's been a lot of fun! But I still prepfer the fermentation process more. I find it very sweet that you ask. I am a huge fan of your channel and have recreated a lot of your recipes already! 🥰
@@eiramu This is so great, making healthier food at home is definitely a fun, and I can see your passion about it, so I wish you keep going with this project, keep improving your products, you can take that knowledge with you no matter where do you live. Homemade maracuja jam, I would love to give it a taste for sure. Take care and thanks for supporting the channel, I'm glad you find my recipes helpful.
Even if you goof and end up with a runny jam, well, that's now a syrup for crepes, pancakes, ice cream, smoothies, etc. Or, carefully cooking it down to a thicker consistency. This does require a time commitment, low heat in a heavy bottomed pan and regular stirring to prevent scorching. It's a somewhat tedious process requiring patience to cook off just the right amount of excess water. Sasha is correct--a wide pan more effectively evaporates liquids than a pot.
👌🏻Chia seeds, Flex seeds, apple oatmeals ‼️ My goodness so many amazing tips and tricks 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻You got yourself a new subscriber 🙋🏻♀️thank you for sharing 🫶🏻🥰
I like the idea to reduce the sugar which is nice! Although pectin occurs naturally in several fruits, esp citrus. When I make homemade jam I also get a lemon or two. I add the lemon juice in cause it adds a nice acid to balance things out. Then I also add the squeezed out lemon rind, peel, seeds n all in (you can put it in a filter bag) and cook it in there with the fruit. You can use that as your source of pectin. Then just remove it afterwards :)! Additionally if you make citrus marmalade no added pectin is needed !
I’m keen to make blackberry and apple jam just like this recipe. It’s blackberry season at the moment in Tasmania. They have a beautiful taste and I enjoy picking them where they grow naturally. 😋😋😊
Another excellent video by our favorite UA-cam ⭐chef. Is it possible to substitute frozen fruit for fresh? Or would the water content be too much? Thank you, Sasha! You deserve all the praise, as your recipes never disappoint. 💖
Thanks so much Lauren, your kind words of support always put smile on my face:) Sure, I think frozen fruit would be just fine, you can add some extra chia seeds or oat slurry anytime...
I’ll definitely give this a try. I usually add poppy seeds to my homemade jam and I think chia seeds are also a great idea. It looks thick, mine usually comes out runny and this looks like a timesaver 😅
My go to daily is to place blueberries & a strawberry sliced up on my 2 slices of bread to toast (sometimes with 1/4 banana on each slice) and I toast in the toaster oven. When done, just mash the fruit into the toast. No extra sugar or my time of any sort is needed!
Actually I never tried it with this recipe, but it's low in sugar and therefore I think it wouldn't last as long as the traditional, but canning this jam is also an option.
you never disappoint us Sashaaaa!!!! The blueberry version with chia seeds looks really good and im going with that cos blackberries r quite expensive and hard to find where i live😋🥰. Thank you always💝
Both of these are just too delicious, so you can't miss if you choose the other version, and other fruits like plums will be just great. Wish you sweet and lovely week Sylvia!
hy ! thankyou for sharing this recipe. im on my less sugar diet journey to prevent diabetic. anw how long this jam will last in refrigerator ? thankyou!
Hello .. wonderful. Now, I make rhubarb jam by boiling and adding only jello , and this keeps for months in the fridge. So, I 'm wondering when you say this only keeps for a week ?
whoohoo brilliant unheard of tips...as i always make to much, to runny jam...xxxxn ps going to check out flat bread vid too as mine resembles and tastes like cardboard...whoohoo thank you
While you have a lot of really great recipes and alternatives on your channel, I do have an issue with treating maple syrup as if it is not sugar, because it is totally a form of sugar (so is honey). What I really like doing as an alternative to sugars is using sweet spices like cinnamon and fruits that are naturally higher in sugar like mango so I get fiber with it. Not saying you have to change the way you do stuff, sugar in small amounts isn't necessarily bad for most people, I just want folks to be more educated on the many different forms that sugar can take.

This is brilliant. Thanks

My go to daily is to place blueberries & a strawberry sliced up on my 2 slices of bread to toast (sometimes with 1/4 banana on each slice) and I toast in the toaster oven. When done, just mash the fruit into the toast. No extra sugar or my time of any sort is needed!
This looks very tasty! ....and therefore could one not can it? Hmmm idk, but it would be great to have a shelf fulll heading into winter!

👍🏾Nice recipe. Many thanks...🤔 Would honey work, instead of maple syrup?..
Honey turns toxic when heated, syrup made of dates would be a good substitute
@@XSD.1. 🤔...or maybe mix in honey afterwards when the unsweetened jam has cooled?
whoohoo brilliant unheard of tips...as i always make to much, to runny jam...xxxxn ps going to check out flat bread vid too as mine resembles and tastes like cardboard...whoohoo thank you
You are the best! Thanks for anouther great video!

Health and with chia! Thank you!😅
I seem to remember some people in the UK making a reduced sugar jam and the E U banned them from selling it.
Which planet are you from? Glad you landed on earth 🌎 and your fab recipes with you. Thank you.
While you have a lot of really great recipes and alternatives on your channel, I do have an issue with treating maple syrup as if it is not sugar, because it is totally a form of sugar (so is honey).
What I really like doing as an alternative to sugars is using sweet spices like cinnamon and fruits that are naturally higher in sugar like mango so I get fiber with it. Not saying you have to change the way you do stuff, sugar in small amounts isn't necessarily bad for most people, I just want folks to be more educated on the many different forms that sugar can take.
Natural sugars are fine especially honey which is loaded with vitamins!
Have you tried Stevia ? For manggo I don't know if you can make a jam, becouse the smell turn wierd when cooked 😊
Maple syrup, honey, fruit (whether mango or others) are all still using its natural sugar to sweeten products. Sugar is sugar so your point is moot.
