This Healthy Blueberry Jam only requires 4 ingredients and takes no more than 10 minutes to make! Stop buying jam from the grocery store that is full of nasty preservatives and sugar! This jam not only tastes better, but is WAY healthier! Be sure to check out my Blueberry Cream Cheese Protein Muffins for another delicious and easy blueberry treat!
This recipe made me approximately 12 ounces of blueberry jam. I love serving this jam on the Eat Royo 30 Calorie Low Carb Artisan Bread 🍞. You can use the code COOKINGKATIELADY for 10% off your order here!

What You Will Need
- Blueberries – 2 cups of blueberries. You can use fresh or frozen! I used frozen.
- Maple Syrup – 2 tablespoons of sugar free maple syrup, or sweetener of choice. I use the brand Lakanto. Honey or Agave work too.
- Lemon Juice– 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice.
- Chia Seeds – 2 tablespoons. You can buy chia seeds at a discount with the code KATIE10 at Prozis too which is awesome because chia seeds are so darn expensive!
How To Make It
- Preheat a small pot over medium heat.
- Add your blueberries and cook for 5-7 minutes, mashing the blueberries while they cook. This could take slightly longer if you are using frozen blueberries.
- Cook until thick and jammy. Turn off the heat and stir in the chia seeds.
- Allow the jam to thicken up more. Cool in the fridge and enjoy!
How To Store It
Refrigerate your leftover Blueberry Jam in a mason jar or other enclosed container for up to a week. It can probably go up to a week and a half, but just watch it since it does not have any preservatives in it!
