Did you make a “no-refined sugar” resolution? Good for you! Sugar can be a hard craving to beat, and you’re on the right track. Just remember balance. If you cut too many things out of your diet, the chances you will binge on the sweet stuff increase.
I bet you’re missing jam. I know why-it’s super yummy on toast or with peanut butter for lunch! But jam is typically full of refined sugar. Don’t worry-I’ve got a recipe so you can welcome jam back into your healthy lifestyle with open arms, no guilt…and no refined sugar!
P.S. This jam couldn’t be easier. And that’s my jam…if you know what I mean.
Ingredients
1/2 cup frozen berry blend (will be 1 cup frozen, 1/2 cup thawed)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp honey
Directions
Let berries thaw for a few hours until room temperature.
Once thawed, mash with a fork until the jam is the consistency you like.
Add the chia seeds and honey (a little more if you like it sweeter) and mash a bit more. Stir it around, make sure it’s all combined really well.
Let it sit for an hour.
Rejoice! And let your toast be happy once again because jam.
