Chia Pudding

A creamy, no-cook superfood breakfast or dessert that your gut—and taste buds—will love.

🌿 Ingredients (Serves 2):

¼ cup chia seeds

1 cup plant-based milk (almond, soy, oat, or coconut)

1 tbsp maple syrup or date syrup (optional, for sweetness)

½ tsp vanilla extract (optional, for flavor)

A pinch of cinnamon (optional, for warmth)

🥥 Optional Toppings:

Fresh fruits (banana, mango, berries, pomegranate)

Nuts or seeds (almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds)

Coconut flakes

Nut butter drizzle

Dark chocolate chips (for a treat)

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Mix it up:
In a bowl or jar, combine chia seeds, plant-based milk, sweetener, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using). Stir thoroughly to avoid clumps.


2. Let it rest:
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. Stir once after 15 minutes to break up any settling seeds.


3. Check the texture:
Once it sets, the chia seeds will swell and form a thick, pudding-like consistency. If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk. Too runny? Add a teaspoon more chia and wait 30 minutes.


4. Top and serve:
Add your favorite toppings and enjoy chilled!
