What To Expect From this Instant Pot Chia Strawberry Jam Recipe?

You won’t get solid, marmalade-like jam with this recipe. Why? I have used very less sugar to make this jam and secondly, I haven’t cooked it for a long time. It’s an Instant Strawberry Jam Recipe which you can enjoy up to a month when stored it in a refrigerator. This recipe produces thick, yet slightly runny, soft jam that you can easily smear on your toasts, biscuits, pancakes or crepes. For reference, see the video or photo.

Plus I have used Chia Seeds as a thickening agent and to make it more nutritious.

Homemade Strawberry Jam in Instant Pot is perfect for spreading on biscuits, toast or on muffins. I love it with pancakes, waffles and ice creams.

My son loved this Homemade Jam. He said this is the best Jam I have ever tasted. 🙂

Notes

You can use any berry of your choice to make this jam. Add little bit more sugar if it's very sour.

You won't get solid, marmalade-like jam with this recipe. This recipe produces thick, yet slightly runny, soft jam that you can easily smear on your toasts, biscuits, pancakes or crepes. For reference, see the video or photo.

For best result keep it in a refrigerator overnight.

You can substitute Sugar with Agave or Honey too. Use 6 to 7 tbsp Agave or Honey instead of sugar.

We prefer less sugar in our jam. You may Add more or less according to your taste.
