Ingredients
  

  • 5 cups plums halved, then each half quartered
  • ½ cups white sugar
  • 4 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 2 teaspoon fresh squeezed lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Cut plums in half, remove pit, then cut each half into quarters.
  • Add plums to a medium-sized saucepan and set stove to low-medium heat (level 3). Add remaining ingredients to saucepan and cover to bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 25 minutes, decrease temperature to Lo for about 10 minutes. Let sit on stove cover to let cool slightly before transferring to a glass jar.
  • Store jam in fridge for about a week or freeze immediately. I like to store the jam in 8 oz. jars so I don't have too much sitting in the fridge at a time.
