How to Prepare Peach and Lavender Chia Jam [Vegan]

  1. Place lavender in cheesecloth or a tea sachet and tie a knot at the top.
  2. Place chopped peaches and lavender sachet in a medium saucepan. Cook on medium-high, stirring occasionally, until peaches soften, release their juices, and come to a boil, about 10 minutes or so.
  3. Reduce heat to low. Mash peaches with a potato masher until desired consistency is reached, being careful not to break open the lavender sachet. Add chia seeds and cook until thickened, stirring often, about 10-15 minutes.
  4. Press the lavender sachet against the side of the pot with a spoon to squeeze all the juices out and then remove the lavender sachet.
  5. If you prefer a smooth jam, simply blend peach mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth.
  6. Store jam in the refrigerator. Will keep for about a week.

Notes

Makes a little over 1 cup of jam. If you like your jam a little sweeter, you can add sweetener to taste.
