Servings: 1 cup
- 2 c fresh apricots, pitted & diced (about 8 apricots)
- 2 Tbsp water
- 2 Tbsp honey
- ½ Tbsp fresh lemon juice (about 1/2 lemon juiced)
Combine the apricots, water, honey, and lemon juice in a small sauce pan and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fruit begins to soften and break down. Help break fruit down with a wooden spoon.
Remove from heat and let cool 15 to 20 minutes to thicken. If you prefer a smoother jam, blend for several seconds until smooth. If you prefer a thicker jam, add 1 tablespoon of chia seeds (they act as a natural thickener).
Store in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
