Chia seed pudding is so simple and you can enjoy it for breakfast, dessert or a quick snack! I love it because it’s naturally gluten free, is a good protein source, and tastes like pudding – what more could you want?👌 It is also a great way to prep your breakfast the night before, making it a great grab and go option.
CHIA SEED PUDDING
⏰ Prep Time: 5 minutes
🥄 Serving: 1
📝 What you need:
- 1/2 Cup of Almond Milk
- 2 tbsp Chia Seeds
- 1 tsp Honey
- Small Jar or ramekin
👩🏼🍳 What to do:
- In your chosen pudding jar, pour your milk and add your chia seeds and honey.
- Mix all of your ingredients together and let settle for 1-2 minutes before mixing again to avoid clumping.
- Cover the jar and place in the fridge overnight (or at least 2 hours).
- Remove from the fridge and top your favourite fruit, yogurt or nuts! Enjoy chilled.
💡 Tips & Tricks
Substitutes: You can use any milk that you prefer. I went with almond milk as I like the nutty flavour it gives the pudding but coconut milk, rice milk or cow’s milk work well too! You can also use any preferred sweetener – some great alternatives are rice syrup, agave syrup or maple syrup.
Storage: Store in the fridge for up to 1 week in a sealed jar or Tupperware container.
Tip: You can add some chopped nuts, fruits or dried fruits for an added extra to your chia mix before putting it in the fridge. For a more decadent option add cocoa powder and cocoa nibs for a chocolatey dessert pudding.
Fun Facts: Chia seeds are super absorbent and develop a gel like texture when they are soaked, making them a great substitute for eggs in baking.
