Instructions

Add the raspberries to a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries begin to break down and bubble.
As you stir, use a spoon or potato masher to mash the raspberries to your desired consistency.
Stir in the chia seeds and lemon juice until combined. (Taste and add 1 or 2 tablespoons of maple syrup if needed.) Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes before stirring again.
