4 Ingredients You’ll Need

• Raspberries – fresh or frozen both work great
• Low carb sweetener like Swerve (granular or confectioners)
• Water
• Chia seeds

Swerve is an erythritol-based sweetener that doesn’t affect blood sugar and is perfect for keto baking and cooking. I order mine from Amazon.

Don’t Skip the Chia Seeds!

Chia seeds are a fantastic alternative to pectin in jam. They help the mixture thicken naturally while adding fiber, omega-3s, and other nutrients. Bonus: they blend in perfectly with raspberry seeds, so your jam looks and tastes like the real thing!

Health benefits of chia seeds:

• High in fiber and omega-3s
• Packed with antioxidants
• Low in carbs, high in protein
• Great for digestion and heart health

Serving Ideas & Final Thoughts

This jam is a huge hit with my family—even the picky eaters! It’s not quite as sweet as sugar-filled jam, but it still packs delicious raspberry flavor in every bite.

Try serving your keto raspberry chia jam with:

• Yogurt or cottage cheese
• Keto bread or muffins
• Pancakes or waffles
• Low carb ice cream
• Chia pudding or smoothies

Even though raspberries do contain some carbs, they’re one of the best keto-friendly fruits. Just enjoy this jam in moderation, especially if you’re on a strict carb count.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use other berries for this recipe?

Yes! This recipe works well with strawberries, blueberries, or blackberries—just adjust the sweetener to taste depending on the tartness of the fruit.

Can I freeze keto chia jam?

Absolutely. Let the jam cool completely, then store it in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before using.

How long does homemade chia jam last in the fridge?

Stored in an airtight container, this jam lasts 7–10 days in the refrigerator.

Does it taste exactly like traditional raspberry jam?

Not quite—there’s less sweetness, but the texture and flavor are still delicious. Many say they prefer the fresh, tart flavor!

Can I blend it for a smoother texture?

Yes. If you want a smoother jam, blend it before adding the chia seeds. You’ll still get thickness and nutrients without the full seed texture.
