This keto jam recipe is an easy raspberry chia jam recipe using frozen berries and chia seeds. Bonus, this healthy jam recipe doesnt’t required cooking! So keep reading to learn how to make diabetes-friendly jam using chia seeds!

Don’t you crave jam some days? Great news, you can have jam on a keto diet, or should I say you can have this keto jam recipe. Obsviously most jams are not keto approved as they are loaded with at least 50% of added-sugar. So, raspberry chia jam to the rescue!

How to make this sugar-free chia jam recipe?

There is nothing easier than a chia jam recipe! In fact, chia seeds are amazing low-carb superseeds to create raw jam recipes. All you have to do is combine any low carb keto fruit with chia seeds and let the magic happen. Well, if you are not using frozen fruits, you will have to add about 1/4 cup of water to the recipe. But my lazy way to make keto jam recipe is to use frozen berries! So say hello to my frozen berry jam recipe that requires only 4 ingredients:

• Chia seeds – white or black chia seeds, both have the same properties. If you wonder if chia seeds are keto approved, the answer is YES. Chia seeds are mainly made of fat, fiber and therefore contain a low amount of net carbs. They are keto friendly seeds with only 2.7g net carbs per serving of 25g (about 2 tablespoons). Also note that the whole recipe here uses 2 tablespoons so you will never eat that much at once, keeping the carbs per serving of chia seeds very low.
• Frozen raspberries – I love to use raspberries because they are the lowest carb fruits on a keto diet, check my list of keto fruits here if you want more information about which fruits you can eat on keto diet.
• Lemon juice
• Sugar free powdered sweetener – I recommend using powdered erythritol or monk fruit or allulose. The most popular brands are Swerve or Lakanto. You can also use stevia drops but avoid crystal sugar-free sweeteners that will give a gritty texture to the jam

A healthy jam recipe

This is not only a keto jam recipe but also an healthy jam recipe for everyone! In fact, chia seeds make this frozen berry jam nourishing too, adding lots of fiber, healthy omega-3 fatty acids and powerful nutrients like magnesium and maganese to your breakfast. And of course, this is a sugar-free jam too!

How to store this chia jam recipe?

This is a raw chia jam recipe and therefore it won’t store well at room temperature. Actually, this keto jam recipe must be stored in the fridge in a glass mason jar. You can store the jam for 3 days in the fridge 

How to use this low-carb jam? 

This keto jam recipe is absolutely amazing on keto coconut flour crepes, keto cream cheese pancakes or on a piece of my 90 seconds keto English muffins. 

How does chia seed jam taste?

A chia seed jam is slightly lighter in texture than regular jam, with tiny pieces of seeds that feel like the one you are used to in store-bought raspberry jam. Also, if you don’t like the pieces of seeds in chia seed jam, you can simply blend the whole recipe in a blender to smoothen the jam!
