Add frozen cherries and lemon juice to small sauce pan and bring to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.

Continue with a gentle boil while stirring and smashing the cherries with the back of your spoon, until desired consistency. For a smoother consistency you may blend after cooling and before adding chia seeds if you wish.

Remove from heat and let sit to cool for 5 minutes.

Place in desired container, then mix in chia seeds and maple syrup. Mix thoroughly.

Best refrigerated overnight, but can be eaten after 2 hours in the fridge. Taste test before eating, and add more maple syrup to your taste preference.
