Tips
The ripeness of the mangoes affects the sweetness of the jam, so adjust the natural sweetener accordingly.
Always sterilize your glass jars before storing the jam to ensure it stays fresh.
Add spices like cardamom or cinnamon for a unique twist on your jam.
Directions
Prepare the Mangoes: Start by washing and peeling the ripe mangoes. Remove the pits and chop the mango flesh into small chunks.
Cook the Mangoes: In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped mangoes, coconut sugar, and lemon juice. Mix well.
Simmer and Stir: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Cook Until Thickened: Let the mixture cook for about 35-40 minutes, or until it thickens. You can use a potato masher or a blender to break down any large mango pieces for a smoother jam.
Add Optional Ingredients: If desired, stir in grated ginger and chia seeds for added flavor and health benefits. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Cool and Store: Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the jam to cool. Once cooled, transfer the jam to sterilized glass jars.
Store and Enjoy: Seal the jars and store them in the refrigerator for up to 6 months. Enjoy your homemade mango jam on toast, yogurt, or even as a topping for desserts.
Makes about 3 cups of jam.
