Hot Pepper Chia Seed Jam

I can’t believe that I didn’t post this when I made these last Fall! Here it is January and I went looking for my recipe as we have run out. I'm playing with the thought that I should try and make some more as these were sooo good!

Next time I will be tempted to leave in some seeds as it could use a bit more heat or use a hotter pepper. The first recipe was hotpacked and sealed and then successfully kept in the fridge. The peach one never made it very far 😍
