Mulled Wine Spiced Plum Chia Jam
Instructions
-
Destone and cut each plum into 8 chunks. Add them to a medium saucepan along with the orange juice. Bring the pan to a light simmer then add your vanilla seeds and pod, orange slices, cloves, star anise, cinnamon sticks and bay leaf, give everything a good stir and continue to cook on a light simmer for 20 minutes or until the plums are very soft.
-
Use a spoon to remove the spices from the pan before grating in ½ the nutmeg and using a hand blender to blend the plums into a chunky puree.
-
Return the plums to the heat and bring to the boil before removing from the heat and stirring in the chia seeds and maple syrup.
-
Allow the jam to cool completely and thicken up before transferring into sterilised jars and storing in the fridge.
