The Easiest way to make Sugar free Strawberry Jam

The Easiest way to make Sugar free Strawberry Jam

Get rid off all the unnecessary refined sugar by making your own homemade sugar free strawberry jam! This simple recipe makes an incredibly fruity jam using only natural sugar and it’s suitable for everyone.
So if you have a sweet tooth like me and want a healthy alternative, you came to the right place my friend.

Did you know that traditional strawberry jam recipes use around 800g of sugar for every 1 kilo of strawberry! I have always wondered why this is necessary. Ripe fruit contains natural sweetness already.

The sugar is supposed to help with the gelling of the fruit, making the jam nice and thick but today we are going to use chia Seeds to naturally thicken our strawberry jam.

Bring on healthy breakfast recipes that are good for our tummy !
