Ingredients

1 1/2 cup frozen summer berries, such as blackberries, blueberries, and strawberries
1 Tbsp chia seeds
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cardamom

Directions

Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan on medium-low, stirring periodically, for approximately 5-10 minutes, until syrupy. Use to top oatmeal, toast, or scones.

Variation: If it’s summer and you have fresh berries, you can use fresh berries instead, but add 1 Tbsp of water or more, to make sure the mixture doesn’t burn.
