Hello there, fellow fall enthusiasts! If you’re into fall vibes and love the tart flavor of raw cranberries, you are absolutely going to dig this raw vegan cranberry chia jam. Simplicity is the name of the game for this recipe, as it only contains four ingredients: fresh cranberries, water, chia seeds, and a splash of maple syrup for sweetness. The best part? There are no problematic additives or preservatives, no artificial sweeteners, and no dyes or other agents. This recipe is just pure, natural goodness that captures the essence of autumn in every spoonful.

Not only is this jam tasty, but also vibrant, stunning, and incredibly healthy. Cranberries are some of the richest sources of antioxidants and vitamin C, which works to boost immune function and encourages collagen production. Chia seeds add a healthy dose of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein, helping you stay full and satisfied between meals. Plus, since it’s raw and made with whole ingredients, it retains all those beneficial nutrients, making it a guilt-free way to enjoy a sweet spread.

Even though this is a jam, you cannot slather it on toast if you are on the raw vegan diet. You can make raw pudding from cashews and use it as a topping, or you can use it as a dip for raw apple or pear slices. After cleansing, swirl it into your yogurt, or even use it as a topping for oatmeal. It is very versatile, fresh, and perfect for fall snacking. Making it is a breeze too—just blitz the ingredients together in a blender or food processor and refrigerate to let the jam thicken up. Let us know how you like it in the comments below.
