Instructions

In a small pan on medium-high heat, add in your chopped fruit and let it cook for 5-7 minutes or until it begins to break down. You may use your wooden spoon or meat masher to slightly mash it down a bit.
Add in your lemon juice, sweetener of choice and your chia seeds and stir. Cook for an additional 30 seconds to a minute and then remove the pan from heat. Continue to stir the ingredients as needed and allow the chia seeds to become more gelatinous over the next 4-5 minutes.
Let cool completely and then transfer to a mason jar or an air-tight container of choice. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. ENJOY!

Notes

*You can substitute strawberry for many other fruits. You can use figs, cherries, Persimmon or any berries really! De-stem and wash fruits as needed and chop/ peel, if applicable. Raspberries, blueberries and blackberries may be left whole!
*If you don't have date syrup you can substitute for honey (if you're not vegan or under 1), maple syrup or any sweetener of choice.
