Base Crust

Be careful not to over process as its nice to have texture and different sized “bits” in your base crust.Press the base mixture into the bottom of your pan or dish evenly. Refrigerate while you prepare the jam layer.
Berry Jam Layer

Turn down the heat continue to cook for 5-10 minutes until the berry mixture thickens and most of the fruit is broken up.Stir through chia seeds and continue to simmer for a further 3-5 minutes until thick and the chia seeds swell.Pour jam into a small mixing bowl and place in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to cool and thicken.Once jam has cooled down, stir through desiccated coconut.Pour jam over the base crust layer, set aside.
