Ingredients
12 ounces rhubarb (3 cups chopped)5 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)¼ cup water2 tablespoons chia seedsOne orange
Directions
Chop the rhubarb into very small pieces, enough for 3 cups. Place the rhubarb in a skillet with 5 tablespoons maple syrup and ¼ cup water. Over medium low heat, bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until softened and most of the liquid has absorbed, about 10 minutes.
Add 2 tablespoons chia seeds. Continue to cook and stir until thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon fresh-squeezed orange juice. Taste, and add additional orange juice if desired.
Pour into a canning jar. Keeps for 1 to 2 weeks in the fridge. Serve on toast, over oatmeal, or swirl into yogurt with crunchy granola or nut toppings.
