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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Enjoy your delicious chia seed pudding!

Notes

  • Quality Chia Seeds: Use high-quality, fresh chia seeds to ensure the best texture and flavor.
  • Experiment with Flavors: Try adding cocoa powder for chocolate flavor or matcha for a unique twist.
  • Layered Presentation: For special occasions, layer the pudding in jars with different toppings for a beautiful presentation!
