Method

1

Gather and prepare your ingredients.

2

Place the raspberries and maple syrup into a small saucepan over medium heat for 5–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they break down, are bubbling, and foaming up.

3

Stir through  the chia seeds, and turn off the heat.  Leave to cool for 10–15 minutes — the chia seeds will absorb the liquid and thicken it more as it cools.

4

Store in a clean jar in the fridge for up to 1 week.
