Ingredients
Directions
Heat the apricots with the lemon juice on medium heat in a small saucepan until they start to release their moisture and soften (about 5 minutes), stirring often and mashing with a wooden spoon until they’re mostly mashed.
Add date paste and chia seeds, heating and stirring often for another 5–10 minutes. Add 1–2 tablespoons of water as needed to deglaze the pot.
Let apricot jam set in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or until ready to use.
Chef's Notes
Substitutions
