  • Heat at just over medium until the berries start to bubble a bit. Turn the heat to just below medium.
  • Use a potato masher to mash the berries and add in the chia seeds. Stir.
  • Cook a few more minutes until the berries are mashed and turn the heat to low. Cook a couple more minutes stirring frequently. Turn off and remove from heat. Let sit.
  • You want the berry mixture to be starting to get sticky but no burned, jam-like but a bit runnier.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease an 8x4 dish and portion ¾ of the crust mixture into the bottom. Press down until flat.
  • Pour the berry mixture over top and smooth it out. Finish it by crumbling the rest of the crust mixture.
