Description
Not only is this chia seed pudding packed with healthy fats, antioxidants, Omega-3 – it is the quickest breakfast on the planet!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 Cup Chia seeds
- 1 Cup Unsweetened Almond milk (or oat milk or regular)
- 1 Cup Coconut milk
- 1-2 Tbsp. Maple syrup or sweetener of your choice (optional, adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- Optional toppings: fresh fruit, nuts, granola, shredded coconut, or chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a mason jar, combine the chia seeds, unsweetened almond milk, sweetened coconut milk, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
- Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
- Cover the mixture and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
- Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to distribute the chia seeds evenly. If it’s too thick, you can add a bit more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve the chia seed pudding chilled, either on its own or with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, shredded coconut, or chocolate chips.
