Instant Pot Chia Berry Crepes
Chia seeds are a diabetes superfood—they're loaded with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants. They also form a gel when added to liquids, so they can help thicken sauces, dressings, and jellies. In this recipes, chia seeds are combined with frozen berries to create a jam-like fruit filling with very little added sugar. You can make your own crepes or look for premade crepes in the produce section of your grocery store for a super easy sweet treat. Or you could use the chia-berry jam to top toast, waffles, or oatmeal for breakfast. Find this recipe and more in The Instant Pot Diabetes
