Uncooked Fruit Jam

On Saturday, my children, along with members of their 4H club, made peach and plum jam!  It was SO delicious on bagels and toast! (and just in a spoon, too!)  :-)

2 cups fruit- cleaned and mashed with skins removed.

You can use any kind of fruit.  Kiddos 1, 2 and 4 chose peaches.  Kiddo #3 chose plums. Other children chose kiwi.
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup chia seeds
1/4 cup lemon juice
Grated lemon peel
1/4 cup sweetener (use either sugar, raw sugar, honey, agave syrup or any other sweetener you prefer.  we used agave syrup at the meeting)

Mix together water, chia seeds, lemon peel and sweetener.
Skin the fruit and mash.  Mix together with chia seed mixture

Put in container and eat on toast or add to smoothies or any other way you prfer.  You can keep this in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days.  It can be frozen  and will keep for months.  Thaw before using.

Enjoy!  We did!  :-)
