Chia Pudding Recipe

Chia Pudding is a simple and healthy dish that can be enjoyed any time of day. Packed with fiber, omega-3s, and protein, it’s both satisfying and good for you. Customize it with fresh fruits, nuts, or a drizzle of honey for a wholesome and delicious meal or snack.

Equipment:

• Mixing bowl or jar with lid
• Whisk or spoon
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Plastic wrap (if using a bowl)

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup chia seeds
• 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based, such as almond, coconut, or oat milk)
• 1–2 tablespoons sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or agave, optional)
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Optional Toppings:

• Fresh fruits (berries, banana slices, mango, etc.)
• Nuts or seeds (almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds)
• Granola
• Coconut flakes
• Chocolate chips or cocoa nibs

Instructions:

1. Mix Ingredients:
   In a mixing bowl or jar, combine the chia seeds, milk, sweetener (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir or whisk well to ensure the seeds are evenly distributed and not clumped together.
2. Let It Rest:
   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or secure the lid on the jar. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the best texture.
3. Stir Again:
   After 15–20 minutes of refrigeration, give the mixture another stir to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
4. Check Consistency:
   Once set, the chia pudding should have a creamy, pudding-like texture. If it’s too thick, you can stir in a splash of milk to loosen it up.
5. Serve and Top:
   Divide the pudding into serving bowls or jars. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Tips:

• Make it in batches for a grab-and-go breakfast during the week.
• Use coconut milk for an extra creamy and tropical flavor.
• Add a layer of fruit compote or jam for a burst of flavor.
