Chia Jam

  • ½ cup mixed berries, fresh or frozen (and thawed)
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

Chia Jam

  • 1. Add berries and maple syrup to a blender and process until a smooth puree forms. Add 1-2 Tbsp of water if necessary to help berries blend smoothly.

Donuts

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • 4. Add soaked dates to a blender and blend until they form a smooth paste.
  • 5. Add date paste to dry ingredients, along with remaining wet ingredients, and continue to whisk until smooth.
