Description
A delicious and nutritious chia seed pudding recipe, easy to prepare and perfect for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
- Chia Seeds: The star ingredient! These tiny seeds expand and thicken when soaked in liquid, creating a satisfying pudding texture.
- Milk: Any type of milk will work, including almond, coconut, or dairy milk, providing the base for the pudding.
- Sweetener: Honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar add the perfect touch of sweetness to balance the chia seeds.
- Vanilla Extract: Enhances flavor and compliments the pudding.
- Toppings: Fresh fruits, nuts, or granola for texture and added flavor!
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of chia seeds, 2 tablespoons of sweetener, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
- Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and swell.
- Once the pudding has set, give it a good stir to break up any clumps. Serve with your choice of fruits, nuts, or granola on top.
- Enjoy your delicious chia seed pudding!
