Chia Pudding
Chia pudding is a simple, nutritious, and customizable dish made by soaking chia seeds in liquid, such as milk or a dairy-free alternative, until they expand and create a thick, pudding-like texture. It can be sweetened with honey or maple syrup and topped with fruits, nuts, or granola for added flavor and crunch. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack!

Chia Pudding
Ingredients
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup or honey adjust to taste
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Optional toppings:
- Fresh berries, sliced bananas, nuts or coconut flakes
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl or mason jar, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
- Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight. This resting time allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
- Once set, give the pudding a good stir to break up any clumps. If the pudding is too thick, you can add a little more milk and stir until you reach your desired consistency.
- Serve the chia pudding in bowls or glasses, topped with your choice toppings. Enjoy immediately or cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Tip:
- For a chocolate version, add 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder to the mixture before refrigerating.
