Raw Vegan Raspberry Jam

The following recipe was adapted from LearnRawFood.com.

1/2 lb. frozen raspberries
12 Medjool dates, pitted
1 tsp. lemon zest
2 ripe pears, sliced

• Thaw the raspberries under cool water (making sure that their centers thaw) and drain in a colander. Note: You can also use fresh raspberries but be sure to rinse and drain.
• Cut the dates in half and set aside. If the dates are hard, soak for 10 minutes in warm water, then drain.
• Combine the raspberries, dates, and lemon zest in a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
• Pour into a bowl and serve with the pear slices. (This jam is also delicious on toast, muffins, or scones and will keep for up to 5 days if stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator.)

Makes 1 cup of jam.
