Homemade Loquat Jam


Preparation time: 25 min


Peel and remove the stone from the loquats. Place the loquats, honey and water into a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the loquats become soft and break down, this can take up to 10min. Crush the loquats into a smooth paste by using a fork or a potato masher. Add the cinnamon and the chia seeds and cook for another 3min until you get the right jam texture.
