You can never go wrong when fruit is the main ingredient in any recipe—this simple & delightful blackberry jam is semi-sweet and extremely versatile—spread on toast, crackers or muffins, stir into oatmeal, grits or yogurt or even just eat it by the spoonful!
I loved it in my grits, on my Greek yogurt, spread on toast and whole wheat crackers, I even spread a little on my pumpkin muffin and it was delicious!!! Plus chia seeds are addicting once you start eating them!
