Mango Chia Jam

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Servings 2 cups

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large ripe mangoes peeled and chopped (2 cups flesh)
  • 2 TBSP chia seeds
  • 1 TBSP honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 lime juiced optional but adds freshness!

Instructions
 

  • Place mango chunks in a small saucepan over medium heat with a small splash of water. Cook gently for 5–7 minutes with the lid on the saucepan, until soft and juicy and can mash with the back of a spoon.
  • Remove from heat and stir in chia seeds, honey/maple if using, vanilla, and lime juice.
  • Let sit for 15 minutes to thicken as the chia seeds absorb the liquid.
  • For a smoother texture, blend briefly with a stick blender.
  • Transfer to a clean jar, cool completely, and refrigerate.

Notes

Omit honey for under 12 months of age.
